Police arrested two teenagers on Monday Nov. 20 in relation to a shooting which killed a 5-year-old boy and critically injured his 11-year-old brother in Denison, northeast Texas.
Multiple rounds of bullets were fired into a home in the 1700 block of West Elm Street in Denison around 11 p.m. on Nov. 19, police said. The boys were inside the house when they were struck by gunfire.
“I heard about seven to ten consistent gunshots,” a witness at the scene told the news station.
Denison Police Lt. Mike Eppler said police are still investigating how the shooting occurred.
“Right at this point, we don’t know if it was a vehicle that went by or if it was somebody on foot that much we just don’t know just yet,” Eppler told KXII-TV. He added that the investigation may lead to more arrests.
Earlier, Eppler said the Texas Rangers are helping police investigate the case.
“We’re still just continuing to work the crime scene and anyone with information we highly encourage them to contact the Denison Police Department with that information,” Eppler told the news station.
Neighbor Temeeker Sommers said the children were respectful and playful.
