SPOTSYLVANIA COUNTY, Va. (WTVR) – Spotsylvania County Sheriff’s Deputies arrested a dad accused of shooting his own son. Daniel Roh, 49, is charged with Malicious Wounding, according to an email from Captain Mike Harvey.

Harvey said Roh and his 30-year-old son Danen Roh got into an argument Saturday night at the father’s Laroque Run Dr. home.

According to investigators, Danen Roh left the home and said he was going to return with a gun and kill his parents.

Later that night, Danen returned and the argument resumed, investigators said. When the son refused to leave, investigators said Daniel fired one round, striking his son in the shoulder.

The father administered first aid until rescue crews arrived, Harvey said. Danen is listed in stable condition. Daniel is in jail, held without bond as the investigation continues.

Investigators said they did not find a gun on Danen.
