An 8-year-old had to be rushed to the hospital after a shooting in Pittsburgh's California-Kirkbride neighborhood. 

According to the Pittsburgh Bureau of Police at the scene, at a home in the 900 block of Kirkbride Street, a 7-year-old boy and an 8-year-old boy were playing with a gun when it accidentally discharged, shooting the 8-year-old in the head. 

The 7-year-old reportedly told police that the gun was in his possession when it went off.

Police said there were no adults in the residence at the time of the incident. A woman who was taking care of the boys had recently left the house to go to work.

The 8-year-old was rushed to the hospital and taken into surgery, and was last listed in critical condition. A Pittsburgh police spokesperson confirmed to KDKA-TV that the boy was still alive as of 7:30 p.m. Saturday, but an updated condition was not given.

The spokesperson also confirmed that the gun had been located.

The 7-year-old and a 15-year-old were taken to police headquarters for further questioning.
