Boy accused of shooting grandma
A 12-year-old boy in Pixley, California has been arrested in the connection of the shooting death of his grandmother.
The boy, whose name was not disclosed because of his age, was booked into Tulare County Juvenile Hall, Sgt. Chris Douglass said. The victim was identified as Shirley Bowles, 76.
Deputies were called to the 16000 block of East Wright Street about 10:50 a.m. Bowles was found shot in the “upper body,” deputies reported.
Though alive and responsive at first, officials said, Bowles died after being transported to an area hospital. An autopsy will be performed today, Douglass said.
The type of weapon used in the shooting was not disclosed.
