Sandrick Jorcelin and his Everett family went to Montreal to visit relatives in May when the car some of them were riding in was hit by a spray of bullets.

His mom was grazed by a bullet during the shooting. His uncle was killed. Sandrick was hit in the stomach, and one of the bullets is still lodged in his body.

A 14-year-old from Everett is recovering after being shot in Canada while on vacation with his family.

On Wednesday, he finally got to go home from Spaulding Rehabilitation Hospital.

"He's about to do a lot of things, and eventually, he will walk again," said his father, Ricardo Jorcelin. "We want to thank everyone for their support, prayers."

"Anything you want to do, you can do it in life," said Sandrick.
