Man Shoots Himself While Taking Selfies With Gun

Deleon Alonso Smith

Simple rule, don’t take selfies with loaded weapons.

It is probably best not to take selfies with any weapons at all. You don’t want this to happen to you.

Houston, Texas police believe that 19-year-old Deleon Alonso Smith was posing for selfies with a gun on Tuesday when the firearm went off striking him in the throat and killing him.

According to Click 2 Houston, Smith and his cousin had found the gun earlier in the day and were at an apartment around 1:30 p.m. when Smith began taking photos of himself holding the weapon.

Smith sadly leaves behind two kids.

It isn’t worth it just for some Instagram likes.
