A 16-year-old was arrested Tuesday after police say he shot his younger stepbrother in their Miami home over clothing.
Around 4:40 p.m., the boys came home from school when the teen, who the Miami Herald is not naming due to his age, put on his 13-year-old stepbrother’s clothes, an arrest report read. When the other young man found out, he asked him to take it off.

That’s when the 16-year-old pulled out a gun to try to scare him, but it went off, striking the boy in the left shoulder.
A family member took the 13-year-old to Jackson Memorial Hospital, where he’s expected to make a full recovery, police said.
The older teen was arrested, and detectives learned the Glock 21 he shot was reported stolen from a Dodge Challenger on the night of August 14.
The teen was charged with aggravated battery with a deadly weapon, possession of a firearm by a minor and grand theft of a firearm.
