Shocking Crime! 14-year-old Charged With Third-degree Murder in York County Child Killing

Two Pennsylvania teenagers are facing adult charges in separate events involving fatal gunshots of younger youngsters, according to authorities.

In York County, Nolan Grove, 14, has been charged with third-degree murder in the killing of 12-year-old Kain Heiland.

Medical experts testified in court about Grove’s mental health, noting that he has no PTSD or psychopathic tendencies but poses a threat to the community due to the planned nature of the shooting and subsequent clean-up attempts, according to Local21News.

Meanwhile, another 14-year-old, Aaron Klingensmith, shot a 12-year-old girl in Clearfield County after asking her “if she thought it was loaded or not,” and then squeezing the trigger.

The woman was shot in the head and airlifted to a hospital, but she died from her injuries.

Klingensmith’s actions, which were charged with third-degree murder, involuntary manslaughter, aggravated assault, and reckless endangerment, caused widespread grief in the community.

According to statements published by PennLive, the district attorney underlined the tough decision to try Klingensmith as an adult in order to serve justice.

Grove shot Heiland in the back on April 1, last year, prompting an urgent police inquiry.

The decision of whether Grove will be tried in adult court or juvenile court was questioned today as medical professionals evaluated his psychological state. Local21News reported their testimonies, including judgments that he was a danger while not exhibiting symptoms of certain mental conditions.

The incident involving Klingensmith, which killed the 12-year-old girl, occurred on April 28 in Brady Township. According to authorities, the youngster obtained his father’s 9mm handgun, which was generally stored separately from filled magazines and was never chambered.
