I'd be willing to bet they kept pokeing at him and poking at him... there is only so much any human can take without snapping back.
I'm sorry the kid died, but I based on only this amount of info... I wouldn't put the old guy away. Maybe some communitee service at a local park or green space.
If you keep plucking the hairs out of a neighbors dog one at a time, you can't put the dog down when it bites you.
