A Kansas teen was left paralyzed from the waist down after a fellow teens father shot him amid a game of senior assassin, according to law enforcement documents released this week.

Ruben Marcus Contreras, a man in his late 40s, was arrested and charged with attempted murder in connection with a May 11 shooting in a Walmart parking lot in the town of Goddard. Sedgwick County deputies said he shot 18-year-old Anakin Zehring after Zehring and his friends had shot at his daughter with a gel blaster, a toy gun that uses water-based beads, according to an affidavit released Wednesday and obtained by HuffPost.

Contreras attorney did not respond to HuffPosts request for comment. He was released on bond following his arrest.
