NC: 3-year-old boy fatally shoots self

Post by seamusTX »

Jacksonville, N.C. — A 3-year-old boy died Monday morning after shooting himself, the Onslow County Sheriff's Office said.

The boy, who was not identified, apparently found a gun at his home on Rutherford Way in Jacksonville, authorities said. He was pronounced dead at a local hospital.

The sheriff's office said that the child's father is a civilian police officer at Camp Lejeune.

Authorities have not said whether charges would be filed.

Please, please, please lock up your guns when you're not carrying/using them. ESPECIALLY if you have little ones running around.

Can you imagine having to look your spouse in the eye after that... assuming she hasn't already packed her trash?

More like you'll find your trash laying out in the front yard.
