(BALDWIN COUNTY, Ala.) - Three teenage boys are now being charged as adults in connection with burglaries on Gravine Island. Another teenager, Summer Moody, 17, was shot during the incident by someone at a fish camp there.

The whole thing started around 4 a.m. Sunday. Baldwin County Sheriffs Deputies say Scott Byrd, Daniel Parnell and Dillon Tyree, all 17, along with Moody went to Gravine Island and broke into several fish camps there.

Three men on the island heard the teens breaking into one fish camp, deputies say those men had to cross a small river to get to the fish camp where the teens were. They began shooting. Moody was hit in the back of the head. She remains in critical condition at USA Medical Center.

Deputies say Byrd, Tyree and Parnell are now being charged as adults because they had a weapon when they were committing the burglaries.
