(CNN)An 11-year-old boy has been charged after being accused of using his father's gun to shoot and kill a 3-year-old boy in Detroit.
While the 11-year-old, who isn't being identified because of his age, was visiting his father's house on Monday at around 1:40 p.m. on Detroit's east side, he allegedly took a handgun from a bedroom closet. The juvenile proceeded to throw the handgun out of the window into his father's backyard, the Wayne County Prosecutors Office said.
The boy retrieved the gun and jumped into a vehicle parked in the backyard. A short time later, the 3-year-old entered the same vehicle, the Prosecutors Office said.

* The boy retrieved the gun and jumped into a vehicle parked in the backyard. A short time later, the 3-year-old entered the same vehicle
* It's unclear what transpired after both boys were inside the vehicle, but one thing is clear: The young child was shot once in the face and killed.
Looks like someone in the WH has been on the prayer rug praying to Allah to give him all the shootings he needs to to push the gun control initiative lately.
Temporarily displacing something highly marketable in a place such as Detroit is not an innocent act of a child.
He knew exactly what he was doing. Get it out of the house, go check it out and keep it for later.
White kids right?.../s
Sounds kind of like an aspiring young gang banger stealing a gun and then no knowing how to use it. But that’s not important. Children, gang bangers or not, should be taught firearm safety in school. If it saves one life, it would be worth it.
And the real problem here is supposedly the weapon?
My suspicion is that the older kid found the gun and thought it would make a great toy. He may even have removed the magazine thinking that it was then safe to use as a toy.
Eleven years old is plenty old enough to be educated about guns. I doubt that the kid had any such education.
Ping
word on the street is that no ones really certain if Mr Jaxon is really the boys father or not but hes been to call Lazhawnn.[ Jaxon ].Daddy.!
3 year old disrespected the 11 year old.
Sad situation. I suppose there will be another push for stronger universal/intergalactic background checks to close gun show loopholes. Not that it has any bearing on this incident, but any port in the storm. That’s how the momunists roll.
WOW Headline should read “11 year Old boy KNOWS who is father is in Detroit”
barely concsious parents are quite often utterly deadly
And 0bozo thinks the US is the same size as the UK or France or any of those European countries.
When I was a kid two of my schoolmates were involved in accidental shooting and we were in firearms friendly rural Michigan. In both cases they were teenagers who should have known better.
One was watching his little sister when she dropped a loaded shotgun down a stairwell and it went off and killed her when it hit the concrete floor. The other was screwing around and a .22 ricochet caught his brother in the eye. It didn’t kill him but we have called him penis or Willy for the rest of his life due to the fact that he only has one eye.
Or south east asia, or Africa.

You can put a little over three Europe’s inside the borders of the US. Europe is around 3 million sq/mi while the US is a bit over 9 million sq/mi. The problem with 0bozo is he thinks all nations are pretty much the same size as the US. (I’m already discounting Australia and China which are pretty much the same size). Germany is roughly the size of Montana and France a little bit larger.
