A mother in east Tulsa is dead after her toddler son accidentally shot her in the head, police say. The 3-year-old son was interviewed by child specialists to try and piece this horrible tragedy together, Sgt. Walker confirmed. As he was buckled into the police car, he repeated "mommy shot." The 26-year-old mom was home with her 3-year-old son and 1-year-old daughter. The mother of the victim, who also lives at the home, arrived home to find her daughter shot in the head. A neighbor tells 2NEWS reporter Liz Bryant the toddler found the gun underneath the couch. She also confirmed the woman is in the Army. Walker said it appears to be a large caliber handgun. He said there are other guns in the home, but not out in the open. "But not out in the open," sorta like the one the kid found.
