A 16-year-old accidentally shot himself and his 14-year-old sister Thursday in Aurora, but survived their injuries, police said.

Both sustained non life-threatening injuries and were treated at the hospital, police spokesman Anthony Camacho said.

The siblings were in a house in the 3800 block of South Fraser Street when the 16-year-old accidentally discharged the gun, hitting himself. The bullet went through the wall and struck his sister, Camacho said.

Police could not confirm where the teens were shot or how they acquired the weapon.
