A 13-year-old California resident was killed Saturday evening when a stray bullet hit him in his home.
The boy was reportedly in his bedroom playing video games when an unknown shooter fired three to five shots nearby and one of the stray bullets hit the boy. The boy was allegedly not the shooter’s intended target, Pasadena Star-News reported.
The shooting occurred around 6:12 p.m. on North Raymond Avenue, according to Pasadena Star-News.
“It’s an absolutely tragedy for our community,” Pasadena Police Chief John Perez said, according to the outlet. “This 13-year-old was innocent. He was doing what 13-year-olds do, playing video games in his house.”
