| Posted in | Posted on
A Louisa County father was released on bond yesterday after being charged with shooting his 18-year-old son in the chest.
William Hamilton Taylor, 48, of the 800 block of Old Apple Grove Road in Mineral, is charged with malicious wounding, use of a firearm in the commission of a felony, discharging a firearm in an occupied dwelling and reckless handling of a firearm.
His son, William H. Taylor Jr., suffered a single gunshot wound to the chest from a .38-caliber revolver shortly before 7 p.m. Tuesday.
He was flown by helicopter to VCU Medical Center in Richmond, according to a news release from the Louisa County Sheriff's Office.
Maj. Donald Lowe of the Louisa Sheriff's Office said yesterday that the son was in stable condition and is expected to survive.
Lowe said investigators did not yet know what led to the shooting. The Sheriff's Office hadn't received any previous reports of problems at that house, he said.
Taylor was arraigned on all but the malicious-wounding charges yesterday in Louisa County General District Court and was released on a $2,500 bond.
