NEW YORK : A heartbreaking incident has taken place in the US state of Pennsylvania where an 11-year-old boy shot and killed his adoptive father for stopping him from playing the gaming device ‘Nintendo’. According to the police, the child’s parents told him to go to bed after midnight and took possession of the Nintendo Switch, which made him very angry. The child later looked for the Nintendo in the gun safe in the house, but there he found the keys to another drawer and then took out a revolver. The child opened fire on his 42-year-old father, Douglas Dietz, killing him on the spot. According to authorities, the child has been charged as an adult in a Pennsylvania court under the Criminal Homicide Act. The accused child was presented in court today in handcuffs.
