Two Year Old Shoots Self In Mouth With Daddy’s Gun

A 2-year-old boy in North Carolina is expected to survive after shooting himself with his father’s gun over the weekend.

Randolph County deputies said that the toddler found the handgun in his parents’ room at their home just outside Asheboro around 2 p.m. on Saturday. The boy put the gun in his mouth and fired it.

According to WGHP, the boy was listed in critical condition Brenner Children’s Hospital in Winston-Salem on Sunday, but was expected to live.

“The bullet missed all the vital arteries there in the neck in the head and also missed the spinal cords, so I said it’s a miracle the child is still with us,” Randolph County Sheriff’s Office Captain Derrick Hill explained to WGHP.

A neighbor told the station that “the good Lord was looking after him.”

The sheriff’s and district attorney’s offices were considering whether to charge the parents with leaving the firearm unattended.

Woman Shot In The Head By Two Year Old

Wayne LaPierre of the NRA tells us that what this country needs is more guns. Well these are the things that happen when more guns are introduced.

The incident happened at 600 North Comet Ave in Callaway around 9:15 Tuesday morning.

When sheriff’s deputies arrived at a home, they discovered 18 year old Emily Allen shot in the head. It appeared the bullet entered her forehead and exited the top of the head. EMS responded to the scene. Emily was alert and talking as she was taken to Bay Medical/Sacred Heart hospital.

An early investigation revealed that a 2 year old boy in the home had spilled something on the bed sheets that morning and they had been stripped to be washed.

Deputies say at that time the 2 year old boy discovered a 38 caliber pistol under the mattress and took the gun and accidentally shot the teen.
