Ethan's parents were not there when this took place. In fact Ethan's mom was at work, working on a medical surgical floor, Ethan was next door playing with some children he always plays with when he visits his grandmother in Elizabeth town. The other children found a gun in a outside building that no one new they had got out, This is a true tragedy. Ethan will be forever missed, the story told was not exactly the truth. i love ethan.
