Witnesses: Accused gunman intentionally targeted 7-year-old
-----

Martinez quickly realized the noises the kids heard were not fireworks; they were gunshots. Twenty-one-year-old Alvin Valenzuela was reportedly firing a gun just for kicks. And, just as she realized what was going on, little Johnathan, who everyone called Jon-Jon, decided to check out the commotion too. That's when Valenzuela turned his aim toward the apartment.

"When I went to grab Jon-Jon, he turned around with gun and shot again, and kept firing after that," continued Martinez.

Police say Valenzuela opened fire on the 7-year-old., and one bullet was enough to take his life.

-----

"He was just right here and he was shooting at the house. Jon-Jon was sitting right here in front of the door. He (the shooter) had to have aimed at him. (He) aims the gun and shoots him," added Gabriel Martinez, a neighbor.

1. Obviously, we need to arm all the seven year-olds so they can shoot back.

This is horrific.

Sounds like the guy shot the kid just for kicks.

I say lock him up and make sure he never sees the light of day.

2. it's obviously an accidental shooting.
At most, he should be charged with discharging a weapon in city limits. After all, that's what all the gun advocates here said after that lady in the restaurant was shot by a guy with a derringer.
