BRAMPTON, Ont. – A nine-year-old boy was sitting in his living room watching TV when he was fatally shot in the head with a bullet fired from outside his house, police said Thursday.
Kesean Williams, a Grade 4 student, was shot Wednesday night and died hours later of his injuries in hospital. No arrests have been made yet, but police believe the house in Brampton, Ont., northwest of Toronto, was targeted.
“It’s appalling,” said Peel Regional Police Acting Supt. George Koekkoek.
“It’s totally unfathomable to think that, as I say, a young child sitting in his home, in the comfort of his own home, that something as tragic as this could happen.”
Kesean, his 15-year-old brother and his mother moved in to that house last week. His brother and mother are “obviously devastated,” said Koekkoek.
