A 15-year-old Sierra Vista boy who died Sunday from a gunshot wound was playing "Russian roulette" at the time with a stolen gun, police said Tuesday.
The teen died from a self-inflicted gunshot wound inside a parked vehicle at the Mountain View Apartment Complex, 77 El Camino Real. Two other juveniles witnessed the shooting, Sierra Vista police said.
A fourth juvenile, who was not at the scene at the time of the shooting, has been arrested and is facing charges of theft of a firearm and prohibited possession of a firearm, police said.
Detectives are investigating how the boy who died came into possession of the stolen gun, Corporal Tim Wachtel, a Sierra Vista Police Department spokesman, wrote in a news release.
The boy's name was not released.
