Washington, May 15 – The father of a four-year-old boy in New Jersey was arrested after his son fatally shot a six-year-old neighbour in the head, CNN reported.
Anthony Senatore, 33, was charged with six counts of endangering the welfare of children and a disorderly person’s offence for enabling access by minors to a loaded firearm, said prosecutor Jim McClain from the Atlantic County Prosecutor’s Office.
Senatore’s son was playing in the yard April 8 when he went inside and retrieved his father’s loaded .22-calibre rifle from the bedroom.
When he came back out, he fired a single shot that struck six-year-old Brandon Holt in the head.
