A six year old boy from Pavilion who was accidentally shot in the neck by his brother is resting at home Sunday night.

 

Police say a 12-year-old boy and his 6-year-old brother were playing at their grandparent's home in Genesee County on Friday night when they found their grandfather's 22-caliber rifle, and decided to play a hunting game.

 

Police say the older brother accidentally shot the younger brother in neck. The boy was flown to strong hospital, and was released Sunday. The Genesee County sheriff's department is planning to hand case over to the District Attorney's office this week.
