Via KTLA:
A 14-year-old boy died after it appeared he accidentally shot himself in the head on Saturday evening, according to the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department.
Deputies from the department’s East Los Angeles Station responded to the 3500 block of Cesar Chavez Avenue at approximately 6:10 p.m. and found the teen lying in an alley with a single gunshot wound to the head, sheriff’s officials said in a news release.
The victim was rushed to an area hospital where he was later pronounced dead. Authorities have not released his name.
Based on witness accounts, investigators believed the teen — allegedly a documented member of a local street gang — was handling a loaded firearm when he “unintentionally” shot himself, the release stated.
It remained unclear how he obtained the handgun.
