HOLD FILIPINO
BOY WHO SHOT
JAPANESE GIRL

Charged with firing the shot which
caused the death of 1-year-Old Jap.
anese girl, a Filipino boy, - years,
is in custody at the boys detention
home and will be taken before CIR
cult Judge Heen in Juvenile court
next Saturday morning to explain his
version Of the affair. The girl died
late yesterday afternoon
The shooting occurred yesterday
morning at Waipahu, the bullet which
struck the girl in the middle Of the
forehead having been fired from a
parlor rifle of the % caliber tyne.
The child was rushed to the planta-
ton hospital where she died a few
hours later. The Filipino boy was
taken into custody by plantation au-
thorities and was later turned over
to Probation Officer Joseph LeaI, who
brought him to Honolulu.
1t is claimed by the Filipino boy
that the shooting of the girl was
an accident and he will tell his story
to Judge Heen on Saturday. An in,
quest probably will, be held shortly
over the body of the girl Judge
Heen explained today that the boy.
being under Is years of age, cannot
be held for murder or a similarly
serious charge. Should it be proved
in juvenile court that the shooting
was not an accident, adds Judge Heen
the severest penalty that could be
imposed would be committing the boy
to the boys industrial school until he
becomes of age.
