This is a local family (although I don't know them) Please keep them in your prayers.
An 11-year old Ligonier Township boy who attended middle school for the first time last week was accidentally shot and killed Friday while visiting a friend's home.
Christopher Harr, a student at Ligonier Valley Middle School, would have turned 12 on Oct. 2.
According to authorities, the investigation into the incident is ongoing.
"It was determined through our initial investigation that several juveniles who were home alone at the time got possession of a .30-caliber carbine rifle," Ligonier Township police Chief Michael W. Matrunics said in a statement. "One juvenile accidentally shot another juvenile while playing with the rifle."
Christopher Harr's father, Daniel Harr, said the incident should serve as a warning to parents to keep their guns locked up and unloaded in the house.
Harr said his son "loved fishing, hunting, video games. He and I went fishing last week. We didn't catch anything."
