A ten-year old boy is in stable condition after an accidental shooting in Brooklyn, New York. He and another boy were playing with a gun when it went off.  There is no additional information available.

This gun accident may have been largely ignored in the press in light of a long violent holiday weekend in New York City during which 64 people were shot, of whom 11 were killed.
