A teenager campaigning for Georgia Democratic Sen. Raphael Warnock was shot and injured on Thursday in a state that is inundated with firearms. 42-year-old Jimmy Paiz was arrested after allegedly shooting the 15-year-old in the leg through the front door of his home at around 5:35 p.m.

"At this point, there is no indication the shooting was politically motivated," Savannah police said in a statement Friday.

However, it's not clear why Paiz would fire his gun through his front door.

The Associated Press reports:

The 15-year-old boy was out campaigning Thursday evening when he was shot in the leg outside a house near downtown Savannah, the police statement said. It said a man inside the home fired a gunshot through the closed front door. The boy was taken to a hospital for treatment.

Officers arrested a 42-year-old man and jailed him on charges of aggravated assault and aggravated battery. It was not immediately known if the man had an attorney who could speak on his behalf.

The authorities said the teenager was taken to a local hospital with non-life-threatening injuries.

"The case remains under investigation," the Savannah police statement read. "At this point, there is no indication the shooting was politically motivated."

Paiz is facing charges of aggravated assault and aggravated battery and was booked into the Chatham County jail.

"I am saddened to learn about this incident," Warnock said in a statement emailed to the AP. "I am praying for the victim and their family and wish them a full recovery."

Remember this when you vote. Republicans literally don't give a shit when children are gunned down.
