Still very few details are being released on that shooting last Thursday afternoon at a home on South Meridian Road. Kalispell Police Chief Jordan Venezio reports the victim, a 16-year old girl, is in critical condition after undergoing surgery at Logan Health Medical Center.
A 14-year old boy is in custody, initially charged with Attempted Deliberate Homicide. Since both are juveniles, identities haven’t been released.
Police arrived at the home on South Meridian Road, just south of 4th Street West, at around 3:20 Thursday afternoon. They found the 16-year girl had been shot. Officers, under the direction of Detective Chad Sweigart, worked into the night processing the scene.
Detective Sweigart would appreciate a call from anyone with any information to shed light on what happened.
