WALDHEIM, La. – A 13-year-old boy was arrested after a Louisiana deputy who was investigating a burglary early Wednesday morning was shot, according to authorities. 

The teen is accused of shooting Deputy Kenneth Doby of the St. Tammany Parish Sheriff’s Office about 3:00 a.m. in Waldheim after he arrived at the scene of a commercial burglary, KATC reported.

According to the news outlet, Doby was shot in the back during a struggle with the suspect.
