Brayden Leroy Wright of Pennsylvania is said to have told arresting officers that he knew his father's gun was loaded.
Pennsylvania officials say a 13-year-old boy fatally shot his 9-year-old brother in the head after he was"not complying with his demands" during a game of cops and robbers.
An arrest affidavit obtained by The Patriot-News said the 13-year-old was playing a game of cops and robbers with his brother at about 6 a.m. on Wednesday when he retrieved one of his father's loaded 9 mm handguns that was being kept in a couch console in the living room. The teen told the arresting officer Erica Polcha that he became angry when his brother"was not complying with his commands" during the game, she said, adding that it prompted him to put the gun's muzzle to the back of his sibling's head as he lay on the couch watching videos on his phone.
Story continuesThe teen said he knew the gun was loaded, according to the affidavit. He was denied bail by a judge and is due back in court for a preliminary hearing Monday.
