A Texas high school student<\/a> and athlete was left permanently paralyzed after being shot while running to his friend\u2019s rescue during a violent brawl earlier this month.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The incident unfolded around 12:40 a.m. on March 19, when authorities were called to a Waffle House parking lot in Richardson regarding reports of a large fight and a shooting, according to<\/u><\/a> FOX 4.\u00a0<\/p>\n

When police arrived, they found one individual suffering from a gunshot wound, and took the victim to a hospital in stable condition.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The individual was later identified as 18-year-old Seth Jackson, a senior at Richardson High School<\/a>, FOX 4 reported.<\/p>\n

\u200b\u200b”Nobody calls in the middle of the night with good news,” Jackson\u2019s father, James Jackson, told the outlet.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Jackson reportedly became involved in the brawl after witnessing his friend being attacked.\u00a0<\/p>\n

“He saw five guys jump on his friend, so out of knee-jerk reaction he kind of headed over there,” James Jackson told FOX 4. “So he just headed over there and never made it within 10\u201315 feet.”<\/p>\n

Video obtained by FOX 4 does not show Jackson anywhere near the alleged gunman<\/a> as he approaches the group involved in the brawl.<\/p>\n

The shooting left Jackson paralyzed from the waist down, with a ruptured lung, fractured ribs and a shattered spinal cord, according to the outlet.<\/p>\n

Shortly after the incident, two individuals were taken into custody stemming from their alleged roles in the tragic fight.<\/p>\n

Taylor Griffin, 18, and Charles Webster, 17, were both arrested and charged with engaging in organized criminal activity<\/a>, according to FOX 4.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Authorities believe Griffin and Webster were involved in the events leading up to and immediately following the shooting, which allegedly escalated due to a conflict between both groups, according to FOX 4.<\/p>\n

Prior to his injury, Jackson worked two jobs and played for the Richardson High School basketball team.<\/p>\n

He had also already received his acceptance to the University of Houston and signed a lease for an apartment in the fall, Jackson\u2019s father told FOX 4.<\/p>\n

“I\u2019ve got to go around the house and get a carpenter to modify the bathroom doors,” James Jackson said. “We\u2019ve got to remodel his bathroom.”<\/p>\n
