Standing nearby was Metz, the man the victim accused of ********* him in the face through the windshield of his car.

The victim told the deputy he and his friend went to the property to inquire about using the location to take homecoming pictures.

After parking near the gate to the home, the boys jumped the fence and walked up the driveway to speak with the homeowner. But when nobody appeared to be at the home, the victim told the deputy, he and his friend walked around the property to see if they could locate the homeowner.

Brent Metz is a member of the Mountain View, Colorado town council.

Still, nobody was around, so the boys returned to their vehicles, where the victims said they were writing a note to the homeowner to ask permission to use their property to take pictures.

As the boys were writing the note, the boy alleged, a man he and his friend had never seen pulled up next to them, got out of his truck and fired a round through the windshield, striking the driver in the face.

said the **** allegedly used in the ********* was inside Metz’s truck.

The sheriff’s office also told Fox News Digital the two boys are not likely to face second-degree trespassing charges, noting their intent to be on the property and find the homeowner for permission to take photos there was not malicious.

As of Thursday, the victim remained hospitalized with serious injuries to his face.

Metz was transported to headquarters where he was processed and booked into jail. He was later released after posting $5,000 bond.

Fox News Digital has reached out to Metz for comment.

The investigation into the matter is ongoing.
