The Akron Police Department said a group of teens was in the basement when the 15-year-old, identified as Arnez Kendrick, pulled out a handgun. He accidentally fired it, shooting the 14-year-old in the head, police said.
Kendrick panicked and turned the gun on himself, according to Lt. Rick Edwards. He died from his injuries.
The Summit County Medical Examiner's Office said the 14-year-old survived and remains hospitalized.
"There was no confrontation between the boys or the kids in the basement. There was no argument, there was no fight," Edwards said.
