PONCHATOULA - A 19-year-old was found shot in the head by family members and police are looking for leads in the case.

The murder was reported Sunday, although it happened Friday, news partner ActionNews17.com posted on its website.  The unidentified male was found on Methvin Drive when family members walked in the house.
