CASCO — State Police investigators will meet with game wardens and the state Medical Examiner to discuss the shooting death of a Casco man over the weekend.

Richard “Jake” Jacobson, 47, died Saturday on Rattlesnake Mountain in Casco.

Police would not characterize the shooting other than to say it was not hunting-related and the gun discharged in the hands of a young boy. Friends have said that Jacobson was planning to go target shooting and had been with one of his sons earlier in the day, though it was not clear whether his son was to accompany him.

The meeting today was scheduled to take place at the State Police crime laboratory in Augusta.
