Stoughton high school senior shot, killed - Jack VanGorden
A 17-year old teenager was shot in the chest by his brother on Saturday. The family is claiming that this was an accident. The boy's mother and brother both called 911 around 3:30 that afternoon describing the accident in the cellar. The victim was taken to the hospital, but later died. “We’ve had nothing but positive interactions with this boy and the whole family,” said Lt. Robert Devine. The police state that there were several family members home at the time of the shooting. The gun belonged to their 21-year old brother who was licensed to own it. But the police are still investigating to find out why the teen was shot. I think that this investigation is very shady, and that in order for the shooting to have been an accident, there must have been drugs or alcohol involved.

I cant believe this happened to someone so young, i find it hard to believe that the shooting was an accident but you never know what couldve happened.
ReplyDeleteThis is such a sad thing to occur! Its hard to imagine that it happened to somebody so young and close to our age.. That's a weird "accidental" happening and I would be interested to know if this claim of "I didn't mean to" is correct.
