So we has an "accidental" negligent discharge resulting in death yesterday.

[FP1201]

Have not seen a news story on it yet, but the call came in about 10:30
C1 (caller) stated that "he just killed his Dad"
"He was making a Snap Chat video showing off his Gun and accidentally shot him in the head".

sucks for sure.

Nothing accidental about this. Violate the rules of gun safety when fucking around, you will then get to experience the finding out part.

 

[Celt]

Holy crap that sucks, I feel terrible for that family.

Any news story on it? A tragedy for sure. It's a reminder to teach your children basic gun safety and operation.

Oof. Thats awful. Poor kid is gonna be a mess for the rest of his life. Feel terrible for the family. Unfortunately complacency kills.

What you don’t stand in front of guns for social media videos? He will be charged with manslaughter would be my guess.

I'll take "Dropped the mag but didn't clear the chamber" for $200, Alex.

Horrible tragedy.

Parent is at fault.

How old is the kid? 12?

Nothing in the news...There was one blip about it on a web page that monitors Police/Fire/EMS Radio transmissions, but it gave the wrong city (close by but not correct)

"Accident" was Dispatch, not my assessment.

The whole thing is conspicuously quiet...in 34 years living here this is only the third GSW that I can recall. (other two were suicides)

Would need to first have social media. Still haven’t been convinced that my life needs Facebook or instagram.

So where did this take place?

Horrible tragedy.
