(1 wounded/ 2 dead) Teen dies negligently shot by step-father

Accidental shooting in Woodland Park  

(10-15-15)  A man may have accidentally shot his son today while recreational shooting.

Police responded to a call regarding a shooting at 1:30 p.m. Thursday. The shooting occurred approximately three miles north of Pikes Peak Road near Loi Creek Road and North Rampart Range Road, in a Woodland Park area where shooting is not permitted.

When a passerby told them shooting was not permitted in the area, they packed up their gear. Both the father, who is in his 60s, and son who is in his late 30s, were inside a vehicle. One round was still in the gun chamber, and a shot fired through a window and hit the son in the chest.

The father rushed down the mountain to a paved area to get help. The son was conscious and alert. Flight for life landed and transported the son to a nearby hospital.

The shooting appears to be accidental, according to police. Woodland Park residents say many people shoot in this area, despite the rule against it
