A 14-year-old boy has been arrested after allegedly killing his parents and severely injuring his 11-year-old sister at their home in a rural community in Fresno County, California, on Wednesday, authorities say.

The suspect, who is not being identified because of his age, originally called the sheriff’s office after the double slaying and told them someone had broken into their house in Miramonte, attacked his family, and fled in a truck, Fresno County Sheriff John Zanoni said during a news conference Friday.

Detectives later noticed inconsistencies in the boy’s story, according to Zanoni.

“Evidence ultimately showed that he had fabricated the story of a break in and was responsible for using multiple weapons to attack his mom, his dad and his sister,” Zanoni said.

    Between 2019 and 2023 the Canadian government issued a ban on “assault style weapons” including pistols shorter than 105mm in length.

    Another commenter pointed out that law was to prevent them being stolen during break and enters which makes sense, but even then I’ve never heard of that happening. I’m sure it does in larger cities So back to the original question of did the change of law to give your newly prohibited weapons back to the government decrease crime rates?

      Respectfully your understanding of the laws and timeline are confused.

      Bill C-21 got royal assent December 15, 2023.

      That’s about two weeks ago which might be why you haven’t noticed a difference.

      The other article I linked from 2022 was just to do with sale and transfer of ownership.

      All the laws that you stated in your original comment were all in place before 2015.

        But what you’re not understanding is HE REALLY LIKES HIS GUNS AND YOU ARE BEING MEAN TO THOSE GUNS. Won’t someone please think of the 9mm handguns being mercilessly attacked here?? They have feelings and rights too.
