A teenage prankster was shot and seriously injured after he and his friends played ding-dong-ditch at the home of an armed Maine man.
Vincent Martin, 30, allegedly opened fire on the group of teenagers after they targeted his house around 1 am on Saturday morning, the Cumberland County Sheriff's Office said.
The group knocked on the door of the Waterford Road home, but before they could rush away, Martin allegedly opened his door and released a barrage of gunshots.
One of the teens were struck by a bullet in their calf, seriously injuring them, the Sheriff's Office said.
