Classical High School Students Reportedly Struck by Pellets Fired From Car on Friday

Students at Classical High School say they were hit by someone firing a pellet gun from a vehicle on Friday. 

Providence Police were already investigating multiple reports of assaults with BB guns over the weekend — and whether they might be linked to a new TikTok challenge. 

A Classical High School administrator told police Monday morning that two students reported that they were struck by a pellet gun on Friday afternoon shortly after 2:30 PM.

As GoLocal reported, victims were shot Saturday night and early Sunday morning in the West End, outside Providence Place Mall, and on College Hill — and that a “dark, older model Toyota sedan” was involved. 

Witnesses to the Classical High School shooting on Friday said the shots came from a small, grey compact car. 

The students said they were struck in the chest and arm areas before the vehicle fled. 

Police are currently investigating.
