Christopher Broad, 16, succumbed to his injuries at a hospital in Belleview after being shot last Sunday. The ensuing investigation revealed that Broad and another boy, Joshua Vining, 17 were taking turns “shooting each other while wearing a vest which contained a form of body armor.” A third teen, Colton Whitler was present at the time of the shooting and allegedly gave authorities a false account of what took place.
Vining and Whitler were arrested in connection with Broad’s death Thursday. Vining is being charged with aggravated manslaughter of a child by a firearm while Whitler faces a charge of providing false information to law enforcement. The teens were both charged as adults.
