Local News in Brief : 16-Year-Old Arrested in Shooting at Lake
Police arrested a 16-year-old Westlake Village boy on suspicion of shooting at two construction workers Aug. 13, police said Sunday.
The boy’s name was not released because of his age. Aiming through a drainage channel from a boat on Westlake, police said he fired a shotgun at the two men. He was arrested Friday and has since been released in the custody of his parents, Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Deputy Sgt. Charles Marshall said.
