Killed – Male Teen – Caleb A. Gordley (Sterling, VA)

An investigation into what exactly led to the Sunday morning shooting of a 16-year-old at a Sterling home continues, but details are still murky as to what exactly happened.

Loudoun County Sheriff’s officials say that between 2:30 and 3 a.m. Sunday, a homeowner in the 4500 block of Pullman Court shot and killed a juvenile intruder.

Before the shooting, an alarm was activated inside the home, and the homeowner says he discovered 16-year-old Caleb A. Gordley on the stairwell.

Gordley lived two doors down from the home – both of which look similar. Authorities add he had been drinking earlier that evening.

Gordley’s father, Shawn Gordley, said on his Twitter account his son entered the neighbor’s house by mistake and was simply confused.

The Park View High School student reportedly entered the house through a window, authorities say.
