Teen Arrested In Wisconsin After Shooting 2 People With Compound Bow

JANESVILLE, Wis. (AP) — A 17-year-old boy has been arrested after shooting two people with a compound bow in Janesville, police said.

Officers were dispatched to Mercy Hospital in Janesville shortly before 9 p.m. Sunday on a report of two people shot with a bow. The two told police they were shot during a disturbance. There was no word on their conditions.

The suspect fled the scene and returned to a residence where police established a perimeter and began communicating with him. The teen eventually surrendered, police said.

He was treated for minor injuries at a local medical facility and then taken to the Rock County Jail on a tentative charge of first-degree recklessly endangering safety.
