JACKSON, Ohio — The police chief in a southern Ohio town said there might never be an explanation for why a 12-year-old boy shot his 9-year-old half brother and then himself.

Jackson Chief Carl Eisnaugle told The Associated Press that it's not clear whether the first shooting was accidental. And he says it will be extremely hard to determine.

The Jackson County coroner has said each boy had a gunshot wound to the head.

Police say they lived at their grandparents' home, where the shootings occurred Wednesday in an upstairs bedroom. Authorities say the grandparents were away at the time, and that they don't believe anyone else was involved in the shootings.

A .44-caliber handgun was recovered at the scene.

The boys were identified as 12-year-old Austin Wiseman and 9-year-old Blake Campbell.AP

Well, the way they make shows is, they make one show. That show's called a pilot. Then they show that show to the people who make shows, and on the strength of that one show they decide if they're going to make more shows.

Like you, I used to think the world was this great place where everybody lived by the same standards I did, then some kid with a nail showed me I was living in his world, a world where chaos rules not order, a world where righteousness is not rewarded. That's Cesar's world, and if you're not willing to play by his rules, then you're gonna have to pay the price.

You think water moves fast? You should see ice. It moves like it has a mind. Like it knows it killed the world once and got a taste for murder. After the avalanche, it took us a week to climb out. Now, I don't know exactly when we turned on each other, but I know that seven of us survived the slide... and only five made it out. Now we took an oath, that I'm breaking now. We said we'd say it was the snow that killed the other two, but it wasn't. Nature is lethal but it doesn't hold a candle to man.

You see? It's curious. Ted did figure it out - time travel. And when we get back, we gonna tell everyone. How it's possible, how it's done, what the dangers are. But then why fifty years in the future when the spacecraft encounters a black hole does the computer call it an 'unknown entry event'? Why don't they know? If they don't know, that means we never told anyone. And if we never told anyone it means we never made it back. Hence we die down here. Just as a matter of deductive logic.
