Authorities say a 5-year-old boy has inadvertently shot his 4-year-old neighborhood while playing at a playground in Prince George's County.
Police spokesman Cpl. Mike Rodriguez says officers were called to a shooting Thursday afternoon at an apartment complex on 23rd Parkway in Hillcrest Heights, where they found the 4-year-old with a gunshot wound. The boy, who was shot in the back, was taken to a hospital. Authorities say he is expected to survive.
Police say the 5-year-old shooter became scared by what had happened and hid the gun in his family's apartment. Authorities are trying to determine who owns the gun and where it came from.
Rodriguez did not identify either boy.

Good ole PG county , a country within maryland borders that is as corrupt as is gets."Little Haiti"
wow. Another shooting within a mile of my house. I usually drive through HH on a daily basis. No suprise. Baaaaad area. Can't wait til I move!
I guessed, before finding the location of the incident, that it would be either Baltimore City of PG County. What a grand place PG has become!
