Fight over Xbox leads to shooting

Police say a fight over an Xbox led to a man shooting his brother in Mesa on Friday.

Police say two brothers fighting over a video game console escalated into a shooting in Mesa, leaving one of them injured.

Mesa Police say the shooting happened on the night of July 7 near Brown Road and Country Club Drive. Two brothers were fighting over an Xbox when one of them grabbed a gun and shot his brother in the foot.

After the shooting, the suspect barricaded himself outside in a storage shed. A SWAT team responded to the scene and took the suspect into custody.

The victim was hospitalized with non-life-threatening injuries. 

Police say the suspect was also taken to a hospital as a precaution due to the extreme heat.
