13-yr-old shoots self to death after assignment email from school

Parents of 13-year-old student who vanished from his house last Wednesday say he killed himself with a gun minutes after an email from his school.

Cayman Naib was found dead near Pennsylvania home on Sunday with a gunshot wound that the county's medical examiner says was self-inflicted, a case of suicide.

The deceased's parents, Becky and Farid Naib, posted the findings on Facebook.

"For those who have been following the Naib family's sad and incredibly devastating news, we have just learned from the medical examiner's office that Cayman took his own life," the family wrote.

"The cause of death was a self-inflicted gunshot wound to his head."

The Naibs in a Thursday Facebook post revealed that the teenager killed himself just hours after receiving an upsetting email from his school about school work.

"Cayman left within 30 minutes after he received an email from school regarding overdue homework (we do not blame the school) and most probably did not do any pre planning," the post read.

"He is a good kid, and has no substance abuse or other issues, this is the first time he has ever done anything like this."

KCCI News reports that the body was found under snow, and in a "sleeping position," about 150 yards away from his home.

Naib killed himself with a gun taken from his home.

When Naib was first declared missing, a wide search was launched with hundreds of volunteers.

A Facebook page called ‘Find Cayman’ was created.

The page has been renamed since renamed 'Celebrating Cayman'
