That kid had access to the rifle and knew how to operate it. I'm sure dad has taken him shooting a time or two.
I know, man. Just trying to be funny. I imagine he didn't have a shit ton of time to act, aim, etc. He was probably just pointing the gun toward the guy and pulling the trigger. The kid probably never even put the gun up to his shoulder inside the close quarters of the home. Those AR-15's barely even kick at all when firing one round at a time, so no real need to throw it up to the shoulder and take aim at center mass in such close quarters.
