He’s taken by private vehicle to Altru Hospital for treatment of non-life threatening injuries

A juvenile male apparently escaped serious injury in rural Fisher Saturday when he was accidentally shot by another juvenile male with a small-caliber rifle.

The Polk County Sheriff’s Office responded to the report at approximately 11 a.m. Saturday, Oct. 28.

The injured juvenile was taken by a private vehicle to Altru Hospital in Grand Forks with what the PCSO describes in its report as “non-life threatening” injuries.

The investigation continues.
