A 14-year-old was arrested in connection with an assault that left a baby with paintball gun wound to its face.

The baby was shot in the face while being fed by its mother in a car in the parking lot of CVS in Guilford late last month.

Police said several other cars were struck by paintballs.

The teen was taken into police custody on Monday and charged with reckless endangerment, breach of peace and assault. He was transported to the juvenile detention center in New Haven.

Police said several tips led officers to the teen.
