KITTRELL — Two men were shot Monday and an 11-year-old is facing juvenile charges for the fatal death of his 84-year-old grandfather. 
 
 A Monday evening altercation involved 49-year-old Lloyd P. Woodlief, father of the 11-year-old, and 84-year-old Lloyd Woodlief. The elder Woodlief shot his son, and then was shot to death by the juvenile, according to the Vance County Sheriff’s Office. 
 
 The incident happened at 430 Cricket Creek Lane in Kittrell. The office of Vance County Sheriff Peter White confirmed the grandfather was shot with a 12-guage shotgun in a press release. 
 
 The 11-year-old was taken into custody Tuesday afternoon. 
 
 “A juvenile petition has been taken out against the 11-year-old,” White said Tuesday. “He is in the custody of juvenile services.” 
 
 The juvenile petition is equivalent to an arrest warrant for adult offenders. 
 
 White said he cannot release the name of the 11-year-old boy because of his age. 
 
 According to the statement, deputies responded to an altercation at about 7 p.m. Monday. They found the 84-year-old Lloyd Woodlief, of 430 Cricket Creek Lane, shot once, and he died on the scene shortly after deputies arrived. 
 
 They also found 49-year-old Lloyd Peyton Woodlief, of 450 Tharrington Lane in Henderson, had been shot with a .22-caliber pistol. He was being treated at Duke University Hospital.

 Shoot -- fatally, it turns out -- his grandfather. 
 
 That's what authorities said happened Monday night in Kittrell, a small North Carolina town of less than 500 people located about 35 miles south of the Virginia border. 
 
 Vance County sheriff's deputies responded around 7 p.m. to an address there after getting a call about a fight, Sheriff Peter White said in a news release. 
 
 When they got there, deputies found two people shot. 
 
 One was Lloyd Woodlief, 84, who lived at the Kittrell home, according to White. He had been shot once with a 12-gauge shotgun and "died shortly thereafter," the sheriff said. 
 
 His son, 49-year-old Lloyd Peyton Woodlief, had been shot with a 22-caliber pistol, added White. The resident of nearby Henderson, North Carolina, was being treated at Duke Medical Center in Durham as of Tuesday afternoon. 
 
 The other person involved was the 11-year-old grandson of Lloyd Woodlief. 
 
 White said a preliminary investigation indicates that Lloyd Woodlief first shot his son. Then the 11-year-old boy shot his grandfather. 
 
 Charges are pending, the sheriff added, though he didn't specify who might be charged, or with what.
