LAKELAND -- A Lakeland boy remains in stable condition after an accidental shooting on Sunday.

Brody Brown, 9, was shot before noon at a residence while he and some friends were playing with a gun before a hunting trip, said Lanier County Sheriff Clyde Brogdon.

Brogdon said Brown, who is listed in stable condition at South Georgia Medical Center, had undergone surgery to have the damaged part of his right leg removed below the knee.
