...There have been at least three fatal shootings in the Big Country involving youngsters this year. In May, Jesse White, 12 of Breckenridge, was fatally shot by another boy who was playing with a rifle in the home where he was staying. Adam Garcia, 18, of Breckenridge, was fatally wounded in a hunting accident in April, when a gun apparently went off, striking Garcia at close range. Aaron Salinas, 10, of De Leon, was shot and killed in early January by his 16-year-old brother playing with a gun he thought was not loaded.
