[Asia Economy Reporter Kim Bong-ju] A horrific incident occurred in the United States where a man, enraged by water leaking from a clogged toilet, shot and killed a young girl.


On the 22nd (local time), according to local media such as KPRC and Yahoo News, on the 19th, Pasadena police in Texas charged suspect Raymond Mins (35) with first-degree murder for shooting a young girl.


On the day of the incident, Pasadena police responded to a report of a shooting at an apartment complex. At the scene, a child named Lorion Walker (6) had been shot multiple times, with two bullets hitting her chest, resulting in her death. It was a gruesome sight difficult to witness.


Raymond Mins, identified as the perpetrator, reportedly became enraged and shot the girl after water leaked due to a clogged toilet.


A neighbor said that Mins frequently roamed near the apartment and told KPRC, "The victim clogged the toilet, and when water leaked, the suspect got angry and caused a commotion inside the house."


The neighbor added, "Before the shooting, the suspect knocked on my door and asked, 'Can you check if the young girl clogged the toilet and water is leaking?'"


The neighbor also reported hearing sounds of a fight shortly after the suspect left their door, a woman upstairs shouting "Get out of here" while holding a knife, and 4 to 5 gunshots.


The girl who was shot was quickly taken to the hospital but ultimately died.


The suspect fled by car immediately after the incident, but police later found him about two blocks away from the apartment where the shooting occurred.


Mins, charged with first-degree murder, is reported to be denying the related charges.



Walker’s grandmother, Elaine House, expressed her grief, saying, "I am speechless. My granddaughter was still a baby, and this morning she was shot twice in the chest."
