11 Year old boy shoots at teen Intruders who are breaking into his home
The 11 Year old shot one of the Intruders in the head-a 16 Year old boy
How did the child get hold of the gun in the first place
Not saying he was wrong but:
Some neighbors are saying the shooter and the intruder were having an argument
just before this happened
The Question is where was the Mom?

This is simply tragic but I think that there is much more to this story than meets the eye! Something is definitely wrong here.

I suppose he is old enough to stay at home alone, but I would say that it was wrong. Shooting a burglar with no arm is a no, no in my country. You can only do it when he threatens your life. However a 11 years old kid would not go to jail for this (you need to be 12 to be judged by a court for minors) but his parents would have serious troubles.

@cahaya1983 the problem with stories like this is they are hastily written... without ALL the information, so there's a lot of questions from everybody because it's really.... not the whole story.

In our country minors are less than 18 years old, and they can't be send to jail for any crime, their parents or guardians will also not be blamed; However new Govt in India has changed law and serious crime done by 16 years old could also be treated in criminal court as adult.

It is sorry state of affairs when kids are left alone and they commit this kind of crime. Parents are to be blamed for not keeping a watch on their children and for not telling them the hazards of using a weapon.

@Marcyaz Well, hopefully they won't. Kids do look around. But I believe you have them locked someplace where no one would find them. I just think they are not worth having in the home. A baseball bat, well, that is a different story. And I have a nice big knife as well.
