The youngest Lotto jackpot winner ever in Colorado is behind bars and faces a charge of attempted murder after Longmont police said he shot another man in the head over the weekend.
Kevin Sutton, 26, was arrested after a shooting at his home late Saturday, said Longmont police Cmdr. Craig Earhart. The man he allegedly shot, Cristobal Lopez, 40, was treated and released; the bullet pierced his scalp at the temple.
"It never penetrated the skull," Earhart said. "He was lucky."
Lopez on Tuesday said he was still in pain but had just learned Sutton was a lottery winner.

Sutton was just 19 when he won a $3 million jackpot in 1997, becoming the youngest of the more than 350 Lotto jackpot winners since the game's inception in 1989. He chose the annuity option to get an annual payment for 25 years. The payments grow by 3.7 percent each year.
His first check was for $51,000 after taxes, and his last payment in the year 2021 will be $121,962.
