Sister Accidentally Shoots Brother Dead While Posing For Facebook Picture

SAVANNAH RAMIREZ, RIGHT, SHOT HER BROTHER MANUEL, LEFT, ACCIDENTALLY IN THE HEAD ON NEW YEAR’S EVE WHEN POSING FOR A PICTURE WITH A GUN FOR FACEBOOK

In what friends have called a terrible accident, 19-year old Savannah Ramirez, has shot and killed her brother, Manuel Ortiz while posing with a handgun for Facebook photos on New Year’s eve.

Police said 22-year-old Ortiz and his sister Savannah came back to the home they shared on New Year’s Eve after spending the night drinking. Reports say she was posing and playing around with the weapon when it went off striking Ortiz in the head.

While it remains unclear who owns the gun, it is also not known if the duo knew it was loaded but Savannah has been questioned and released pending further investigation in the case.

However, the victim’s sister would likely be charged with manslaughter if tests conclude she had alcohol in her system at the time of the shooting.

On both Manuel and his sister’s Facebook pages there are numerous shots of them posing with guns and making gang symbols.
