Two NJ Boys Accused in Pellet Gun Shootings

Two boys face numerous charges after they allegedly shot four other youths with a pellet gun at a central New Jersey apartment complex last month.

Authorities say the attack occurred April 25 in Ocean Township. No injuries were reported, though one youth said he was shot after refusing to turn over a cellphone.

The boys, ages 11 and 12, both face aggravated assault and weapons charges. The older boy also faces a robbery charge.

Since the suspects are juveniles, police in the Monmouth County community would not disclose their names on Monday.
