Escalating violence between two groups of youths led to an early morning shooting Wednesday on normally peaceful Grand Island that hospitalized a Kenmore man and put a Grand Island teen in custody, Erie County sheriff's officials said.

The shooting left Charles Casterline, 20, of Kenmore, in Erie County Medical Center with gunshot wounds to his face. The incident shocked residents on the island where such violence is virtually unheard of.
