Charged with careless use of a firearm, as motive remains unknown
A 14-year-old boy in the reserve community of Hall Lake, Saskatchewan has been charged with careless use of a firearm after he shot and killed a 12-year-old boy. The Mounties who were on duty at the crime scene Wednesday said the boys went into the woods with a firearm, and what transpired before and after the shooting remains unknown. Some say the boys were hunting, while others believe they did not know the gun was loaded. The 14-year-old made a brief appearance in court. He has since been released.
