Update: Video shows teen boys playing with guns before one takes his own life after killing friend on New Year’s Eve

Reported snapchat footage of two Georgia boys emerged after one boy died on New Year’s Eve, while the other one took his life shortly after he accidentally fired the fatal shot at his friend.

As CrimeOnline previously reported, 15-year-old Devin Hodges was showing a group of friends a gun when he accidentally fired a shot and hit his friend, Chad Carless, 17.  According to Gwinnett County Police Department Officer Ashley Wilson, the group of teens were looking at the gun while huddled inside a small shed in Lawrenceville, off of Riverlanding Circle, when the incident occurred.

“What we’ve learned so far is that (Carless) was in a group of four males gathered in a makeshift shed (behind a home),” Wilson said, according to Gwinnett Daily Post.“At some point, a gun was displayed and was fired and (Carless) was struck. (Hodges) then ran from the shed.”

After the teens ran from the shed, one of them called 911. Michele Pihera, Public Information Officer for the Gwinnett Police Department, told CrimeOnline that although Devin did not make the 911 call, the name of the caller has not been released. Authorities are currently trying to determine if any criminal charges will follow before releasing the names of the other teens involved.

Detective David Smith of the Gwinnett County Police Department said when authorities arrived, they spotted Hodges “running between two homes,” apparently with a handgun. While between the homes, he shot himself in the head.

“Carless succumbed to his injuries before help could arrive,” Smith said. “As officers were arriving on scene, Hodges was seen running between two homes, where he then took his own life with the handgun.”

It’s unclear how the teen found the gun or who it belonged to, but the ordeal shook the residents of the normally-quiet neighborhood.

“The (shed) is kind of a shack that kids hang out in, so we’re kind of like, ‘oh my God,’” resident Barrie Hunter told Gwinnett Daily Post. “We’ve lived here for 18 years — this is the first crazy thing (like this) to happen.”

The story continues to develop. Check back with CrimeOnline as additional details become available.
