A mother and her four young children were traveling in a minivan on Jonesboro Road. The woman tells police she heard a loud “pop” and turned around.What's your opinion? Is it possible that the negligent owner of a gun which ends up in the hands of kids can claim ignorance, shrug the shoulders, and all anyone does is call it a tragic accident?
“Definitely, this is an awful tragedy,” says Clayton County Police Lieutenant Chris Windley.
"Her four-year old daughter was slumped over in her car seat with a gunshot wound.”
The little girl was airlifted to Children’s Healthcare of Atlanta at Egleston with life-threatening injuries.
Investigators are now trying to figure out where the gun was in the car and who pulled the trigger. Above all, he said, this sad event is further proof that kids and guns can be a tragic combination.
Haven't we had enough "proof that kids and guns can be a tragic combination?" Aren't we sick of hearing that?
Anytime a kid get's ahold of a gun, an adult should be held responsible.
