Report: Albuquerque boy shot and killed while camping with family in southern Colorado

A 7-year-old Albuquerque boy was shot and killed early Monday while camping with his family in southern Colorado.

The Denver Post reports the shooting happened around 8 a.m. Monday near Stunner Pass, which is located in between Alamosa and Pagosa Springs.

The Conejos County undersheriff said the boy was camping with three generations of his family when he somehow was shot in the chest. It is unclear exactly how the shooting happened.

Family members drove the boy to meet an ambulance, but the boy was pronounced dead after arriving at an area hospital.

The Post reports the county coroner said a local judge has imposed a gag order on the case.
