TERREBONNE — Authorities say a 14-year-old boy is dead and his cousin is in custody after a bullet came through the wall of the motor home the boy was sleeping in at a central Oregon hunting camp and struck him in the head.
Crook County Sheriff Rodd Clark says investigators believe the bullet was fired from a distance by 21-year-old Brandon Hornseth of Lonepine.
Hornseth was arrested Monday night on suspicion of first-degree manslaughter and other charges in the death of his cousin Justin Butler of Culver. Hornseth was being held at the Crook County Jail; it was unknown if he had an attorney.
Butler and his family were elk hunting at the family ranch in Terrebonne when gunshots were heard early Sunday. Those inside in the motor home turned on the lights and discovered the teen had been shot.
Sheriff's Sgt. James Savage said the investigation was ongoing but the shooting didn't appear to be intentional.

The top row contains the group of users who have had the most impact, the 2nd
row the group of users who have had the 2nd most impact (et cetera).
Users with similar impact are grouped together, and the average score of the group
is shown to the left of the group. The author of the article is also shown on the
left, in their corresponding group.
Each user's score is based on the number of comments the user has made plus the
number of votes their comments have received. The scores are calculated relative
one another, so while their absolute value is not particularly important, their
relative difference does indicate a larger difference in impact on the conversation.

If the shooting was unintentional, why is the kid being charged? Was Dick Cheney charged for shooting his friend in the face? I think not.

The kid failed on the big rules of hunting, and was negligent, he fired in the direction of a house.
