NEW HAVEN, Conn., Jan. 27 (UPI) -- Each day, about 20 U.S. children are injured by firearms seriously enough to require hospitalization, and more than 6 percent die, researchers say.
Dr. John Leventhal and his team at the Yale School of Medicine in New Haven, Conn., studied children and adolescents age 20 and younger at the time of admission to the hospital in 2009.
