Early this morning, police shot and killed an armed 14-year-old boy who they say fired a handgun at another man on a street in the Melrose section of the Bronx.
Authorities say two officers on patrol heard gun shots just after 3 a.m. and ran to East 151st Street and Courtlandt Avenue, where they saw Shaaliver Douse chasing another male with a gun.
After Douse fired at the pursued male, police ordered him to drop the gun.
One officer then fired a single shot and hit Douse in the lower left jaw.

Is it known for sure that the handgun was not a "drop gun"?
