DEVERAUX TOWNSHIP, Maine (AP) Wardens say a 12-year-old boy was hospitalized after being hit by buckshot from a hunter over the weekend in Washington County.

WABI-TV reports that the boy’s father was shooting at a grouse and some of the shotgun pellets hit his son.

The boy was transported to Northern Light Eastern Maine Medical Center in Bangor.

The Maine Warden Service declined to release identities and the shooting remains under investigation.
