FON DU LAC - A 16-year-old boy accused of shooting an arrow that hit a Campbellsport girl will face charges in adult court.
A Fond du Lac County judge has agreed to waive the boy into adult court. District Attorney Dan Kaminsky says he's preparing criminal charges against the teen.
Seven-year-old Aryanna Schneeberg was playing outside her home when she was hit in the back by an arrow fired from a compound bow May 20th.
Doctors at Children's Hospital of Wisconsin said Aryanna was lucky to be alive after the arrow sliced through her spleen, stomach, diaphragm and lung before stopping at her liver.
The teen initially denied shooting the arrow, but later told investigators he was aiming for squirrels and didn't come forward because he was scared.

MINOCQUA - These plants may look pretty but they're taking over our rivers and lakes. Michele Sadauskas is Oneida County's Aquatic Invasive Species Coordinator. She is working to map and control the yellow iris, the plant you see here. She and two other conservation workers spent the day weeding Stacks Bay.
"They invade our wetlands. They're a really robust, aggressive plant. What they do is they crowd out our native species and make actually the wetland a lot less diverse," says Michele Sadauskas, Oneida County AIS Coordinator.
Removing yellow iris is a slow process. It takes three hours of work just to properly map and control 20 feet of shoreline.
