What's worse? That some kid died playing "dodge the arrow"...

Sixth-grader Carlee Adkins said she started dating Caleb on St. Patrick's Day. The last text message she received from him on Saturday evening was, "Bye babe, I love you."

She said Caleb was at a friend's house when it happened and that the bow-and-arrow game wasn't his idea because "he never liked doing that stuff. That was somebody else's suggestion." She said she had never heard of anyone playing the game before.

Carlee said she was too distraught to go to school Monday. She described Caleb as shy, artistic and a fan of any type of music — except country. He also helped Carlee with her skateboarding.

"He was a nice kid and he was easy to hang out with and be around," she said. "He'd do anything for a person."

Personally, I'd like to know more about the rules and how score is kept and whatnot.
