15-year-old facing attempted murder charge after teen shot near Maspeth High School

Investigators were searching just around the corner from Maspeth High School where a 17-year-old student was shot in the arm. 

That victim was taken in an ambulance from here to Elmhurst hospital with non-life threatening injuries. 

Police tell CBS2 the victim got into some sort of an argument with two others when he was shot. Those two suspects got onto a scooter and were caught not far away. 

We're told they're both 15 years old.

While cops try to figure out the motive behind this shooting, there were and are plenty of parents who were left terrified.

"He said 'Mom, somebody got shot. Told me it was a friend of his that he usually walks with to Starbucks. I just told him stay calm. This is what he's saying. Stay in the classroom, stay away from the doors, you know the routine. You know, and it's really a shame that in  this day and age we have to tell our kids that this is how you have to be in school, or something like this happens, you know? As a parent It is very nerve-wracking to know that I can't do nothing. I'm absolutely helpless," one parent said. 

The school was locked down for about an hour and a half as police worked to make sure kids were safe. 

Police sources tell us the victim, who's 17, is the son of an NYPD officer. 

While he recovers, many in this community say the gun violence has become too much.

The shooting took place at 1:40 p.m. on Grand Avenue near 74th Street.
