WEST POINT (CBS13) - Authorities say a 16-year-old is under arrest after he fatally shot another teen in an apparent hunting accident.

The Calaveras County Sheriff's Office says deputies were called to a quarry along the 1100 block of Bald Mountain Road a little after 3:30 p.m. on Wednesday after a shooting was reported.

At the scene, a 14-year-old boy was found with wounds to his face and upper body.

The boy was taken to Mark Twain Hospital but later died.

Deputies say the 14-year-old was out bird hunting with a 16-year-old boy and was somehow shot.

The 16-year-old was later arrested by sheriff's detectives. He is facing a felony charge of discharge of a firearm in a grossly negligent manner and has been booked at the Calaveras County Juvenile Probation Department.
