Man Randomly Firing Gun From Porch Hits 8-year-old Riding By On Bicycle: Police

A Pennsylvania man has been charged with multiple counts of assault after police said that he randomly fired a gun from his house, hitting an 8-year-old boy who was riding outside on his bicycle.
(snip)
Snowden has said that he did not know who fired the shot. In an interview with WCAU, he can be seen cursing, and then taking reporter Na'eem Douglas' microphone and throwing it the street.
North Coventry Township police arrested him for the crime about 24 hours later.
"The defendant was extraordinarily reckless," Chester County District Attorney Tom Hogan pointed out. "The right to own firearms includes the responsibility to handle firearms safely."
"We are all grateful that this innocent child was not killed just a couple of days before Mother's Day," he added.
Investigators recovered two handguns from Snowden's home.
"I have guns that are registered for my own home protection," he told reporters.
