Montgomery, Pennsylvania - Three central Pennsylvania teenagers have been accused of fatally shooting a pet donkey on an Amish family's farm.

WNEP-TV (watch news video) says the boys were charged Thursday, about a week after the donkey was shot 18 times on the Clinton Township farm in Lycoming County.
