8-Year-Old Christopher Bizilj Kills Himself With Uzi At Gun Show, Family Blame Teenaged Supervisor
CHRISTOPHERÂ Bizilj, age 8, shoots himself at a gun show. His family blames the teen for giving him the Uzi
READY for an only in America story? Well, ok, not only in America. Also in Pakistan, Iraq, Afghanistan and more remote parts of Lily Allen:
The family of an 8-year-old boy who fatally shot himself at a gun show in western Massachusetts say the Uzi submachine gun jammed twice before he lost control of the weapon and fired into his head.
If only those Uzi sub-machine guns came with health and safety warnings:
* Moving parts – not suitable for under threes.
* May attract nuts.
* To be used only as part of calorie controlled diet.
Over in Connecticut:
The family of Christopher Bizilj (bah-SEEL’) of Ashford, Conn., says in a civil lawsuit filed Friday that a 15-year-old instructor who cleared the gun and handed it back to the victim failed to provide proper guidance.
Teenagers can be sooo irresponsible.
Bizilj shot himself at the Westfield Sportsman’s Club in October 2008. The boy’s family claims the gun was defective and unreasonably dangerous, and they blame the failure to properly service it.
The case continues….
