A 17-year-old from Jamestown is in critical condition at a
Youngstown, Ohio, hospital after he was shot during a hunting
accident.
State police in Mercer County are investigating the shooting of the
unidentified teen who was shot in the neck by his hunting partner
early Saturday morning.
Police were not sure what the teens were hunting, but the state
Game Commission said duck season began Saturday.
Around 7 a.m., police said the two were hunting in Greene Township
near State Line Road when the incident occurred. Police said the
victim was flown to St. Elizabeth Medical Center in Youngstown.
