Who keeps a gun on a nightstand with children around? Then again who would have thought a 2 year old could pick it up? 😳

 

I definitely see charges on this one.

A 2-year-old boy injured both parents and himself after firing a handgun he found on a nightstand in a West Bath, Maine home Wednesday morning, police said.

Officers responded to the residence around 8 a.m. according to the Bangor Daily News. The child’s mother, 22, was struck in the leg and his father, 25, sustained a minor injury to the back of the head, according to police

What I want to know is, how did the child get two shots off? Without being jump scared by the first. One I can imagine by accident, squeezing the trigger and it was angled at the parents, but two shots in succesion and they both hit their targets?

 

Surely the child wasn't aiming for them...?

Kid walks out of bedroom holding gun, dad is laying on the floor watching TV, mom was walking towards the room to check on the noise she just heard. Kid tries to raise the gun, accidently manages to fire one shot through his moms leg into the dads head...
