OMAHA, Neb. (AP) — A 12-year-old Omaha boy has admitted his role in a fatal shooting as part of a deal with prosecutors that will lead to a sentence of probation.

The boy pleaded guilty Thursday to reduced charges of criminal conspiracy and using a weapon.

Authorities have said the boy was carrying a handgun when he and two teens ambushed two men. Prosecutors believe the other boys, ages 15 and 17, are more responsible for the death of 31-year-old Jamymell Ray on June 29. Another man was wounded.

The Associated Press generally doesn’t name juveniles accused of crimes.

Prosecutors asked the judge to place the 12-year-old in a group home, so he will be away from the influence of fellow gang members.
