11-year-old fatally shoots 16-year-old intruder

An 11-year-old Missouri boy shot and killed a 16-year-old boy during an attempted home invasion Thursday afternoon, St. Louis County police said. Police said two suspects tried to break into the home north of downtown St. Louis twice before the shooting on Thursday.



On the third try, authorities said the unidentified teen went through the home's unlocked front door while the 11-year-old and a 4-year-old girl were home alone.

Police said the younger boy shot the teen in the head. The would-be burglar's body was found in the home's front foyer. Investigators said no one else was hurt in the incident. The second suspect fled the scene after the shooting, but was later taken into custody.


The 11-year-old's mother was being interviewed by investigators. St. Louis County police spokesman Sgt. Brian Schellman described her as cooperative with the investigation.

Fox2Now reported that police want to know why the children were home alone and why the 11-year-old had access to a gun.

Police believe the mother bought the gun after prior break-in attempts.

  28. This is how an uncircumcised fella shot and killed my cousin in Atlanta who is even a soldier. The US government has to do something...
    "First they came for him cos of corruption around, I refused to speak up cos am not corrupt. They invaded his home, I refused to speak cos I am no intruder. Next they came for me with a gun....then I had no one to speak up for me".

  29. Why would a 16year old break into somebody's apartment.Was he going there to farm?What happened is just self defense and maybe it's the instruction her mom left before going out.

  47. People be having a problem with the 11 year old having access to a gun forgetting that he used it to defend himself and the little kid. What does it matter if he used a gun? If there was no gun in the house and he used a kitchen knife to slice the throat of the robber would it have been a problem?
