The parents of a 13-year-old boy who opened fire in an Indiana middle school last year said their son’s actions were “unforeseeable” and deny any responsibility for them.

The boy’s parents responded Monday to a lawsuit brought by the parents of Ella Whistler seeking damages for her injuries suffered in the May 25 shooting at Noblesville West Middle School.

The girl was shot seven times and suffered injuries to her face, neck, hand and upper chest. One gunshot severely damaged an artery in her right arm and had to be replaced. Whistler was honored recently at an Indianapolis Colts game. She got the opportunity to perform with the team’s cheerleaders and sang the national anthem with a choir at the game.
