A 9-year-old boy is accused of shooting and killing his sister, 13, after the two argued about a video-game controller, according to reports. WTVA says the boy—from Monroe County, Mississippi—grabbed a gun during the fight and shot the girl in the head, while their mom was in another room feeding her other kids. Local Sheriff Cecil Cantrell named the girl as Dijonae White and said it’s unclear how the boy managed to get hold of the gun, or what consequences such a young child would face. Before authorities announced that White had died, Cantrell is reported by USA Today to have said: “This is all new ground for us. We’ve never dealt with a kid shooting a kid at age 9. We don’t know yet what kind of charges or if charges will be pressed. We want to make sure we’re doing everything correctly.”
