<b>RAEFORD, N.C.</b> — Investigators say a 16-year-old boy has been shot and killed during a birthday party in Hoke County.

Authorities say the victim, Hoke County High School student DeAndre Ricketts, was shot in the head. No one else was wounded.

Peterkin says his deputies are trying to talk to people at the party and track down other leads.
