The death of an 11yearold Contra Costa County boy. Tonight Oakland Police say the boy may have accidentally shot himself. Good evening. Im dan ashley. Im carolyn johnson. It happened on yosemite circle in oakley. Thats where alan wang is live tonight with the latest. Alan . Carolyn and dan, one neighbor says he was surprised to hear that the family had a gun inside the house. Apparently they did and tonight around 7 00 an 11yearold boy who lives in this home picked up the gun and accidentally shot himself in the head. It happened somewhere in the house here in the town of oakley. Emergency crews radioed for a medical helicopter while they were working on the boy, but called it off just before it landed after the boy died in this ambulance. They say he lived here with his mother, father and grandmother, and they rarely associated with the rest of the neighborhood. He walked his dogs. I think his dogs name was baby. He was sweet. Brief conversations. Seemed nice. Surprising. This is a quiet neighborhood. It is unclear how the boy got uh hold of the gun and exactly who owns it. Neighbors say the father, the mother and the grandmother are all nurses and the boy goes to a private catholic school. Police are not saying if the parents were home at the time this happened, but we hope to gather more information as this investigation continues. Alan wang, reporting in the town of oakley, abc7 news. Alan, thanks very much. Abc news is learning more about the officer involved in the shooting death of a bart sergeant named tom smith. Smith was hit by a single shot of a bart officers gun while they were searching for stolen officers. The officer who fired the facial shot was michael mays. He previously worked for the Moraga Police department. Former police chief hired mays and they say he is a dedicated officer. I believe he and tom worked together for several years up until the time i retired and continued working together. He had a strong integrity and was very good at what he did. As anyone can imagine police work can be hard, stressful work done under pressure. How this happened is not clear. As ama dates explains, training is critical. At a News Conference this morning barts police chief would not comment on the officer who shot and killed tommy smith. We want to give him a chance to grieve. I visited with him last night. He is extremely upset, obviously. We want to give him a chance and his family to come to grips with what is going on. The shooting happened as five detectives, two iewn formed officers and an alameda sheriff deputy wearing bullet vests were doing a probation search. They knew he would not be here. He was in custody at the time. They were looking for property he was suspected of stealing. You never know what is on the other side of the door. He is the senior director of Public Safety and he is also a retired sfpd captain. Bart police are like any other agency having been the director of training for five years he says the officers are put through Firearms Training simulations every two years. There are innocent bystanders and a child comes out with a gunpointed at the officer. He has to decide whether it is a suspect or not. Probation searches are routine, but there is always an element of danger. Friends and family are mourning the loss of tommy smith. A neighbor hung a flag to honor the veteran bart officer. She has known smith sips third grade and feels lucky to have been his friend. Just tragedy. I couldnt believe it. I was shock eld. He was amazing. He was full of life. He was friendly to everybody. He was everyones friend. Smith is the first bart officer to die in the line of duty in the 42year history of the department.
