A physical altercation led a 14-year-old to shoot an 18-year-old during a high school football game, causing panic; the victim was airlifted and is in stable condition, police said.

  • Mayfield Police arrested a 14-year-old male from Fulton, Kentucky on Friday in connection with a shooting at Mayfield High School's War Memorial Stadium; he faces a first-degree assault charge and is held at a juvenile detention center.
  • Mayfield Police say the shooting followed a physical altercation between 18-year-old Jordan Riley of Farmington, Kentucky, and another juvenile, which prompted the 14-year-old male from Fulton, Kentucky to discharge his weapon.
