US boy, 9, 'kills sister over video game'
Only in America.
A 13-year-old girl in Mississippi has died after allegedly being shot by her nine-year-old brother over a video game, police say.
They said the boy grabbed a gun on Saturday afternoon after his sister would not give up the controller.
He allegedly shot her from behind, and the bullet entered her brain.
A local sheriff announced on Sunday that the teen had died of her injuries in a Memphis hospital. It was unclear how the boy obtained the gun.
It is also unclear what consequences the nine-year-old will face.
"He's just nine," Monroe County Sheriff Cecil Cantrell told the Clarion Ledger.
"I assume he's seen this on video games or TV. I don't know if he knew exactly what this would do. I can't answer that. I do know it's a tragedy."
Every time people are like "This is unbelievable", how can it be, it happens all the time.
Will the right come out and say it's not the gun's fault? That without this gun this kid would just have used a chair and put it through her brain?
The fault lies with the parents, or the adult who owns the gun.
Likely the criminal who owns the gun....
