DOWNEY, Idaho (KIDK) A shooting has left an Idaho man dead and the suspect, sources from the Sheriff’s Department say, is the victim’s twelve-year-old son.

The Bannock County Sheriff's office says dispatch received a 9-1-1 call of a shooting Friday night. Upon arriving at the scene, detectives found the body of 46-year-old Paul Danielson.

Bannock County Sheriff Lorin Nielson says investigators brought Danielson's 12-year-old son in for questioning before taking him into custody.

On Saturday afternoon, Danielson's body remained at the scene while the coroner conducted the investigation.

The autospy of Paul Danielson will be conducted on Monday and the prosecutors will determine the fate of his 12-year-old son on Tuesday.
