Children need to stop watching karate and wrestling matches unsupervised.
Devalon Armstrong, 13 has been arrested and held at a juvenile detention centre after he beat his little half-sister to death using wrestling moves he'd copied from the TV, police claim.
He is accused of repeatedly slamming Viloude Louis, 5, onto a bed, punching her in the stomach, jumping on her back and elbow-dropping into her kidneys.
She suffered broken ribs, internal bleeding and liver lacerations from the brutal bashing at their Terrytown, Louisiana, home.
Police say Armstrong was babysitting his younger sibling on Sunday afternoon when he decided to test out some moves he'd seen on World Wrestling Entertainment.
Later complaining of having a stomach ache, she went upstairs to brush her teeth — before being found by her brother 30 minutes later in crippling pain on the bathroom floor.
Realizing she was no longer breathing, Armstrong took her downstairs to the sofa and dialed 911.
Paramedics arrived on the scene but found her unresponsive. She was pronounced dead soon after she died from multiple internal injuries.
