Man arrested following accidental shooting of 5-year-old boy by his brother in North Carolina.


A 6-year-old boy accidentally shot and killed his 5-year-old brother in North Carolina, in a tragic incident that occurred on October 8 in Greenville. The gun owner, 72-year-old Rayfield Ruffin, was charged for failing to store the firearm properly to protect the children in the home. The boys’ great-grandfather, Ruffin was released on a $2,000 bond after the incident. The 5-year-old victim, Karter Rosenboro, was described as a bright and charismatic child who loved to make people laugh. He was a student at Northwest Elementary School and was learning Spanish. Karter had recently lost his first tooth and received $10 from the tooth fairy, which he used to buy candy. He was a twin, with his sister Khloe always being his protector. The family has set up a GoFundMe page to help cover expenses. The incident highlights the dangers of unintentional firearm injuries among children, as reported by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. The CDC emphasizes the importance of keeping firearms locked, unloaded, and separate from ammunition to prevent such tragedies from happening. The family, friends, and community of the young victim are mourning their loss and coming together to support each other during this difficult time.
