This teenager's late night return proved too costly. A 14-year-old girl in Colorado was shot to death by none other than her stepfather when she was trying to sneak in into her own home in the wee hours of the night.

The stepfather shot at the high school girl as he mistook her for a burglar. The girl had slipped out of her home without her parents' permission and as she was crawling back into the house through an opening in the basement, she was shot at in her stomach and chest.

The girl died of her injuries.

The stepfather is currently under investigation on whether he shot in self defence or whether he had any malintention.

The teen was the eldest of three children.
