Louisiana man shoots 14-year-old girl who was playing hide-and-seek outside his home, officials say

A Louisiana man allegedly shot at children who had been playing hide-and-seek outside his home, striking a 14-year-old girl, officials said. The girl suffered a gunshot wound to the back of the head early Sunday and was taken to a hospital with injuries that were not considered life-threatening, the Calcasieu Parish Sheriff's Office said in a statement Monday.

Investigators learned that several children were playing hide-and-seek in the Starks neighborhood and were hiding on the neighbor's property.

David Doyle, 58, told detectives that he got his gun when he saw "shadows outside his home" and shot at people he saw running away, unknowingly hitting the girl, officials said.
