The grandmother of the 8-year-old Dallas boy who was shot in the face by his White neighbor says her son’s emotional health has taken a heavy blow.
D.J. Maiden has been recovering in a Dallas hospital after cops say Brian Cloninger, 46, shot him in the face in their apartment complex. His grandmother, Sharon Locklin, says her grandson may never regain the feeling in his jaw.
“He don’t want the kids to look at his face,” she said. “He says, ‘I look like a monster, granny.’ I’m like, ‘No, you don’t.’”
Cloninger is being held on bond and is charged with felony injury to a child. It is not known why Cloninger shot the boy. Community activist feel the charges are too low and have called for attempted murder charges.
We don’t want him to be on the streets,” she said. “No matter what charges is, we want him to stay in.”
D.J. began his treatment at the Children’s Medical Center of Dallas; he is now being treated at Baylor Medical Center. He’ll undergo another surgery in a few weeks.
