ajc reports The Georgia Bureau of Investigation says an 11-year-old girl in north Georgia has been fatally shot, apparently by a sibling who was playing with a loaded handgun. [Special agent in charge Jerry] Scott says the fatal shooting Friday night appears to have been a "tragic accident." The girl was riding in the back of a pickup truck with her siblings and other children when she was shot. Scott says it appears that one of the girl's siblings was playing with a handgun when she was shot.  Their parents were in the cab of the truck. Of course there'd be no mention of charges or responsibility, it was a "tragic accident." What's your opinion?  Please leave a comment.
