(FOX 25 / MyFoxBoston.com) – A boy who was shot by his father last month in Oxford is doing better.
Sources tell FOX 25 Owen Benway has been released from the ICU and is waiting for a bed in a Boston rehab hospital.
The boys' father, Daryl Benway, is accused of shooting his 7-year-old daughter to death and critically injuring his son before turning the gun on himself.
The Department of Children and Families told FOX 25 the Benway family was investigated a decade ago.
Allegations of abuse and neglect surfaced back in 2002. The abuse investigation involved one of the older children in that family and not the children involved in this tragedy.
