Teen Shoots Mom While She Was Doing Puzzle After Tablet Fight: Police

A Wyoming teenager will face adult charges after being accused of fatally shooting his mother, Theresa McIntosh, using her own gun. The incident occurred following an argument over the teen's school grades.

Incident Details

The shooting took place at a home in Cheyenne, Wyoming, on March 7. Deputies found McIntosh with a gunshot wound to the back of her head; she was airlifted to a Colorado hospital but died from her injuries the next day.

Fourteen-year-old Havoc Leone was taken into custody at the scene and allegedly provided conflicting accounts of the event to police.

Events Leading Up to the Shooting

According to court documents, a dispute over Leone receiving a D in math reportedly led him to take his mother's Taurus 9 mm from her vehicle and hide it in his room. On the day of the shooting, another argument occurred involving accusations that Leone stole a tablet from one of McIntosh's clients.

Legal Proceedings

Leone has been charged as an adult with first-degree murder and is held on a $500,000 bond. He is scheduled for a court appearance on March 18.
