Fourteen-year-old Chris Reed told The Philadelphia Inquirer he was with the group of kids and saw his friend, Chris Mackey, get shot. City shootings involving children are not uncommon as guns continue to float around neighborhoods, said Colwin Williams, an outreach worker with violence intervention group Philadelphia CeaseFire. The boy's death came a week after a 4-year-old girl died after she apparently shot herself at her North Philadelphia home. Two teenagers have been charged in a 13-year-old boy's death after he was fatally shot in the face after the group found the gun and were playing with it in the backyard of a Philadelphia home, authorities said Thursday. The two were charged in juvenile court and authorities have not named them or the victim.
