TOLEDO, Ohio — A 17-year-old has been found guilty of shooting two people in the face with a flare gun last year.
Nathaniel McCray entered an Alford plea on Tuesday in Lucas County Common Pleas court to two counts of felonious assault.
In the end, the judge found him guilty.
McCray is accused of jumping into a woman's car along with five other men after she stopped to get gas on Bancroft and Cherry. The six men reportedly told Deborah Price, 36, to drive them to a location near Page and Kent. Authorities said that the men then got out, which is when McCray allegedly turned around and shot Price in the face with a flare gun.
Price then drove herself to the hospital with severe burns.
Later that month, 16-year-old Anthony Turner and his friends were walking to Whittier Elementary when they were approached by two other teens.
The boys had a brief conversation, before McCray allegedly said the words, "game over." According to authorities, McCray then shot Turner in the eye with a flare gun.
McCray was found and arrested on September 17 in relation to these incidents.
He will be sentenced on May 14.
