Childhood friends die in accidental shooting, suicide in Willowbrook

Guns don't kill people, childhood friends do.... But they died know they were safer with a gun in their home.


WILLOWBROOK - Family and friends are in mourning today for two young men, including one who accidentally shot and killed a boyhood friend in a struggle over a gun and then, apparently overcome by guilt, turned the weapon on himself on a street in unincorporated Willowbrook.

The shootings were reported in the 400 block of East 138th Street at 1 a.m. Sunday, said Deputy Crystal Hernandez of the Sheriff’s Headquarters Bureau.

Both victims were hanging out with other people in front of a residence, said Deputy Don Walker, also of the Sheriff’s Headquarters Bureau. One man, identified by the coroner’s office as 24-year-old Dominique Barnett, pulled out a handgun and a second man tried to disarm him, according to witness statements given to deputies.

A brief struggle began over the gun, which was fired, causing a bullet to strike the second man, identified by the coroner as 23-year-old Jerrod Taylor, in his upper torso, authorities said. The man who first produced the gun then aimed it at himself and fired.

“One victim was pronounced dead at the scene and the second victim was transported to a local hospital, where he was pronounced dead,” Hernandez said.

A handgun was recovered at the scene, Walker said. No one else was injured.

Family members told reporters the two Los Angeles-area men were friends who had known each other for more than a decade.

Antoine Barnett, the father of Dominique Barnett, told KCAL9 he wished his son had called him before killing himself.

“He didn’t see any out,” the elder Barnett said. “I’m not sure there is much more I could have done, but I could have talked to him. I didn’t even get a chance to say bye to him.”

Sheriff’s homicide Detective Steven Lankford told reporters at the scene that the first shooting appeared to have been accidental.

Gunlover-tard!

LoLz!

Never run out of spin.

Guns don't kill people, people with guns kill people - quite often by accident.

The most important day in your life is the day some gunlover-tard accidentally kills you

This tragedy would have never happened if there had been a good guy with a gun around to prevent both shootings.

A couple of fudge-slinging Prozac munchers out of the gene pool and off the welfare rolls. Sounds like a win.
