A Minnesota man was accused of shooting his teenage grandson after an argument.
The incident reportedly happened on May 3 at a residence in Crow Wing County. Deputies responded after receiving a report of a shooting, but were informed that the alleged victims had already fled the property and gone to a nearby store for help. When deputies arrived, they located an 18-year-old man suffering from injuries to his back that were reportedly consistent with birdshot wounds.
According to court documents, the teenager’s mother told investigators that her father had shot her son following a dispute connected to a household chore involving a fish house. Family members reportedly told investigators that the older man had become upset because the teenager had not stored the structure properly.
