    Author: Wright MA, Wintemute GJ, Claire BE.
    Journal: J Adolesc Health; 2008 Dec; 43(6):619-22. PubMed ID: 19027653.
    Abstract:
    We studied the 336 firearm suicides occurring in California in 1997-1999 to persons under age 21. The gun used was most often owned by the victim or a family member living in the victim's household. Prevention efforts should focus on gun ownership and accessibility.
