French police says a 14-year-old boy has accidentally shot his twin brother dead during a family meal.
The boy had picked up an automatic pistol that he did not know were loaded and accidentally fired it, shooting his brother in the chest.
A local police commander in charge of the inquiry told AFP that one of the family members had got out several guns, without knowing or giving a warning that some of them were loaded.
Police said firefighters had tried to tend to the injured boy but were unable to save him.
The boys' uncle had been charged with manslaughter on Monday but was released on conditional bail.
