It is not new that some people use the live streaming resources of social networks to show themselves with weapons and even to show a murder or a suicide.
This time, through Instagram, two young people, in Detroit, in the United States, were performing a live broadcast showing money and also a rifle.
According to the police report, the 18-year-olds were best friends, and there was an accidental gunshot, resulting in one of them being hit in the head from behind. The shooter himself called the police for help. Police did not release the boy's name.
The victim's family also rules out that the crime was intentional. Dylan Hemphill's mother, the young man who was killed, said it was an unfortunate episode. She still believes the gun fell to the ground and caused the shooting.
As the event was broadcast live, it will be easier for the police to seek information about what happened.
It is worth mentioning that, currently, the police use the devices of those involved in crimes a lot to obtain evidence that can collaborate with the investigation. This time, of course, will be no different.
With regard to the use of firearms in the United States, the topic has been widely discussed in recent months.

Last year, an episode also sparked interest in ending the legalization of gun use in the United States. In one attack, 59 people were killed and more than 500 were injured.
Even so, the current president of the United States, Donald Trump, is against the end of the liberalization of weapons.
"The Second Amendment will never be repealed! As much as Democrats want this to happen, and despite the former Supreme Court Justice's words yesterday, there is no way that will happen. We need more Republicans in 2018 and always ensure control of the Supreme Court!", said the president through his profile on Twitter.
