When would enough be enough? Here’s another story of a young life cut short, and guess what? A gun is involved.
A woman has been killed after her new assault rifle which she was showing to her friends fired – shooting her in the head.
Gun enthusiast Anastasia Adair, 22, was walking down the stairs and into the garage in her home in Federal Heights, Colorado, when she reached out to hand the rifle to her husband.
The gun, believed to look like an AK-47, fired, hitting her in the head on Tuesday at about 10.40pm local time.
Husband Shane Adair, a tattoo artist, told police he is not sure if he touched the gun as his wife handed it to him, according to Federal Heights Police Lt. Gary Toldness.
The gun is believed to have fired another shot as Mrs Adair fell down the stairs and into her husband’s arms.
And they say guns don’t kill people… Please!
