A 13-year-old boy is charged in connection with what police said was an unintentional shooting of another teen in March.

Cedar Rapids police arrested Dennis Warren on charges of involuntary manslaughter, a class D felony, and carrying weapons. He is also charged with Obstructing Prosecution which is an aggravated misdemeanor. Authorities are holding Warren at the Linn County Juvenile Detention Center.

On March 18, police found 15-year-old Senquez Jackson with a gun shot wound inside a home at 1424 Bever Avenue SE. He died the next night.

The Linn County Attorney's Office says Warren was handling a small 38-caliber semi-automatic pistol when he pulled the ammo clip from the handle. They say he thought that meant the gun was unloaded, but there was still a bullet in the gun. The prosecutor's office says the weapon did not belong to Warren or his mother. They also say during the investigation that Warren gave the gun to one of his friends so police couldn't find it.

Due to the type of charges and Warren's age, state code does not allow the county attorney's office to petition to move the case to adult court. Warren is 13-year-old and the minimum age is 14.

Police said they are still investigating the shooting.
