A 17-year-old Colorado boy was shot in the face Tuesday after he and a friend went to a home to ask permission to take homecoming photos on the property.
The shooting happened around 4:15 p.m. at a home on Pleasant Park Road in Jefferson County, the sheriff's office said.
Metz then got out of his vehicle and allegedly fired one round through the windshield of the teen's car, the news station reported.
He said they parked outside the gate, hopped the fence and walked up the driveway to look for the homeowner, the sheriff's office said in a news release.
A sheriff's office spokesperson told KUSA that the teen's intent did not seem "malicious or criminal."
