ALBUQUERQUE, New Mexico -- An Albuquerque court saw harrowing security camera video on Friday of the moment when a 10-year-old boy shot and killed a 16-year-old girl with a stolen gun during a heated brawl among neighbours in the side yard of an apartment complex on Halloween, apparently over loud music.

The video shows the boy standing at the front door of the International District apartment, holding the weapon and firing toward the clashing individuals.

The boy and his mother, 40-year-old Elaina Gomez-Villeda, who was throwing fists at the time of the shooting, can be seen retreating to their apartment while the girl’s parents respond to the shooting, screaming and banging on Gomez-Villeda’s door.

Gomez-Villeda and her son were detained after police arrived at the apartment complex. Police uncovered five other firearms during the investigation, in addition to the stolen gun.

On Friday, Albuquerque police detective Chase Jewell told the Second District Court that Gomez-Villeda can be heard clearly telling her son to go get the firearm.

She can also be heard warning others on the scene that her son was about to shoot.

“He’s going to shoot you. Look, he’s going to shoot someone,” Gomez-Villeda said, according to Jewell.

Gomez-Villeda then throws the victim’s mother to the ground, isolating the victim, who is then shot by Gomez-Villeda’s son, according to the detective.

Gomez-Villeda is facing murder and child abuse charges, among other felonies. She’ll stay locked up until trial.

Her son, meanwhile, is not facing criminal charges.
