15-year-old used ghost gun in deadly shooting of teen at Delco corner store: police

A 15-year-old has been charged with first-degree murder in Delaware County on Wednesday.

Samir Austin is accused of shooting another 15-year-old with a ghost gun he bought online, police say.

Authorities believe Austin fired shots into a corner store in Darby, Pennsylvania on Monday afternoon.

He was arrested on Tuesday, just 16 hours after the shooting.

An 18-year-old was also injured by the gunfire.

Investigators in Delaware County say Ausrin bought the untraceable weapon as a kit gun, assembling it with the specific intent to kill.

Prosecutors say they are trying Austin as an adult for this crime.
