Teen Found Shot to Death
A 15-year-old boy, believed to be playing Russian roulette, was found dead at a relative’s home in Lake Los Angeles, authorities said Monday.
The boy, whose name was not released, was found Saturday morning with a gunshot wound to his head in the 41000 block of 161st Street East, said Lt. Dan Rosenberg of the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department.
Two of the boy’s cousins were believed to be involved but denied any role, Rosenberg said.
The sheriff’s official said charges were not expected to be filed.
