Man Arrested After 13-Year-Old Dies from Self-Inflicted Gunshot in Irvine
A 56-year-old man, Christian Douglas Yeager, has been arrested in connection with the tragic death of a 13-year-old boy who suffered a self-inflicted gunshot wound at his home in Irvine. The incident occurred while the boy was visiting friends, and the gun involved belonged to Yeager, who was not home at the time but is facing charges of criminal negligence and child endangerment for leaving multiple unsecured firearms in his residence. Authorities are investigating whether the shooting was accidental or intentional, emphasizing the need for proper firearm storage and safety, especially around children. School counselors were made available to support the South Lake Middle School community following the boy's death. The police have underscored the importance of securing firearms to prevent such tragedies, with free gun locks available in the city. The investigation is ongoing as officials gather more information regarding the circumstances of the shooting.
