Chicago – 5-Year-Old Boy Shot And Killed Inside Home After Gun Went Off Identified
Calumet City police and fire officials responded to a home in the 200-block of Paxton Avenue about 9 p.m. for a report of a child who had been shot, officials said.
When police arrived, they found a 5-year-old with a gunshot wound to the head and immediately began life-saving measures, officials said.
The child was taken to Advocate Children’s Hospital in Oak lawn, where he died just before 10:15 p.m., according to officials.
Preliminary investigation shows a gun went off in the home once, but it was not immediately clear how the child was wounded, officials said.
“I was sitting here in the living room,” neighbor Mae Davis said. “I was watching television and then I heard the boom, just like a shot.”
