TORONTO — Halton police have seized five homemade guns after a youth accidentally shot himself in the hand this week.
Police say a 17-year-old boy was attempting to load a .22-calibre bullet into a firearm he had built himself from scraps of metal when the gun fired and the bullet went through his hand.
The boy's father turned the handgun over to police.
Upon searching the boy's home, police discovered three more homemade guns, as well as a fourth at another residence.
Police say the guns were made out of scraps of metal and other commonly accessible materials.
Charges are pending.
