Sadly, a 16-month-old boy was shot to death by his sibling who is only 5 years old, according to FOX. The incident occurred at a northwestern Indiana apartment.
Reports say on Tuesday, the unidentified sibling got ahold of a handgun inside the apartment and shot Isiah Johnson. Lt. Matt Gard, a Lafayette officer, revealed that an individual outside of the apartment contacted first responders to inform them that he wasn’t breathing.
Gard told the Journal & Courier,
“There was one adult and two children inside the apartment.”
The case is currently under investigation as no arrests have been made.
