5-year-old child killed in shooting in Minneapolis suburb

MINNEAPOLIS (AP) – A 5-year-old child was killed by a 13-year-old who shot a gun at a home in the Minneapolis suburb of Brooklyn Park.

The Brooklyn Park Police Department said the 13-year-old boy was handling the gun as he and several other youths were making a social media video.

After a preliminary investigation, the investigators believed the 13-year-old accidentally shot the boy.

Officers tried to render first aid to the child once they arrived, but the boy died at the home.

The 13-year-old was arrested and held at the Hennepin County Juvenile Detention Center.

Police are still investigating the death.
