The Pasco County Sheriff's Office says a 10-year-old boy was shot and wounded Monday afternoon.
It happened at a home on Old Sparkman Road in Dade City.
Investigators say the 10-year-old and a 9-year-old were left unattended in that home when the older boy was shot. The sheriff's office says the incident appears to be accidental.
The boy was transported to the hospital as a trauma alert, but deputies say he was alert and talking.
