SANTA ROSA, Calif. - A teenage gunman and the boy he shot just outside a Northern California high school are affiliated with street gangs and were involved in an ongoing dispute, authorities said Wednesday. Santa Rosa police located the 17-year-old shooter’s .32 calibre revolver Tuesday night discarded in some bushes about 3 1/2 miles (5.6 kilometres) from Ridgway High School, authorities said. The gun had four rounds of ammunition and two spent cartridges; it was stolen in 2016 in a residential burglary in Santa Rosa, police said. The gunman and the victim argued Tuesday morning outside of the high school, where both are students, as part of an ongoing dispute, he said. Ridgway High School, about 55 miles (89 kilometres) north of San Francisco, is an alternative continuation school for Santa Rosa High.
