Ulster County sheriff’s deputies are asking for the public’s help in finding whoever it was that shot a 15-month-old child in the face with a pellet gun last week at a Saugerties trailer park.
According to deputies, at about 9:40 p.m. on July 5, a woman was carrying the child into a residence at Sunset Woods mobile home park on Timberwall Rd. when the child was shot. A pellet was removed from the child’s face at HealthAlliance Hospitals’ Broadway Campus.
Detectives are actively pursuing leads, deputies say, and ask that anyone with information on this incident call the crime tip hotline at (845) 340-3599 or call (845) 338-3640 and ask to speak with Detective Babcock.
