around an Indiana apartment complex, authorities said Monday.
It's not clear what police believe his role was in the incident, as they had yet to offer a full narrative. No defense counsel was listed in Osborne's inmate records, and the state public defender's office said it would decline to comment until the court officially assigns an attorney to represent him.
The boy walks back to a unit, puts the gun in his left hand and opens the door with his right before he goes in. "My son opened the door, and the little boy upstairs is standing there with a firearm," the woman, who wasn't identified, said as she stood in her open doorway."I was like, 'Shut the door — he’s got a gun.'"
