Jason Patton was named the school's Future Homemakers of America student of the year last week, largely for his championship at the state competition. At least nine rounds were fired into the home through a bedroom window at the back of the house and a plate-glass window in the living room, police said. Jason Patton was struck between the eyes by one of at least eight bullets shot through the windows of the Patton house in northeast Denver near City Park. He was rushed to Denver General Hospital, where he was listed in fair condition last night. Denver police say they're investigating whether the two gunmen who blasted at least 10 shots into the home of the Rev. Jerry Patton Jr. on Thursday night had confused their target.
Police believe the house was targeted mistakenly in a gang hit.
Last night, detectives were seeking information on two men seen running from the area. Real ranchers are driven out of the business. Carpenter Jason Patton is not allowed to vote.
