Mesa County investigators ID hunter who killed boy in national forest
Justin Burns, of Palisade, died after being shot in the chest at Big Creek Reservoir

Mesa County authorities say they have identified the person who fatally shot a 14-year-old boy Sunday morning on national forest land as a licensed hunter.

The county sheriff's office, however, declined to release the hunter's name, citing an investigation into the slaying.

Authorities say they are investigating the shooting as an "incident" and that they have not definitively determined if the shooting was accidental.

"The course of the investigation will determine (the nature of the shooting) in further detail," Heather Benjamin, a sheriff's office spokeswoman, said Tuesday.

Justin Burns, of Palisade, died of a gunshot wound to his chest at Big Creek Reservoir in the Uncompahgre National Forest, the county coroner's office said. Justin was bow hunting with his father when he was shot, the sheriff's office said.

Benjamin said the U.S. Forest Service is assisting in the investigation.

Justin's death has been ruled a homicide.

"The shooter is and has been in contact with investigators," Benjamin said.

Archery and muzzleloader season for various big game is ongoing in Colorado, and bear rifle season is also under way in many areas across the state.

Recreational shooting on national forest land in Colorado has come under intense scrutiny since the July slaying of Glenn Martin, 60, who was shot by an apparently errant bullet in the Pike National Forest.

Family said Martin was waiting to roast marshmallows with his grandchildren when he was struck.

The Forest Service has introduced a plan for the Arapaho and Roosevelt national forests they hope will cut down on the mounting tension between shooters and other recreationists. Affected lands would span Boulder, Grand, Clear Creek, Gilpin, Jefferson, Larimer and Park counties, and implementation is slated for late 2016.

The proposal aims to eliminate shooting on lands that are less than a half-mile from homes or in areas of highly concentrated recreational use. It also calls for at least one designated shooting range in each of the seven counties where the forests lie.
 
Unless he'd been culled, the kid might have gotten hit by a car or damaged a farmer's crops, so the hunter did him a favor, didn't he?

A seven-year-old girl was shot and killed in Michigan on Thursday night at a soccer practice facility.

Timothy Obeshaw, 57, allegedly fired rounds into a vehicle holding Emma Watson Nowling and her mother, Sharon Elizabeth Watson.

He then turned the handgun on himself.

Emma passed away at a nearby hospital; the mother is listed as in serious but stable condition.

Police officials said the 9 mm pistol used in the crime was legally registered to Obeshaw, who had a concealed carry permit.

He reportedly once lived with the child and her family and was seen by witnesses as happily interacting with the girl at soccer practice shortly before the shooting. No motive has been established outside of family claims that the assailant had been experiencing paranoid episodes as of late.
