Deadly innocence
Kid shoots himself
Cincinnati, Ohio — A three-year-old boy in the US accidentally shot himself by playing with a pistol he found in his mother’s purse, police said on June 12.
The boy’s mother placed an emergency call in Cincinnati on June 11 to say her son was not getting a pulse. Police said the boy was wounded in the chest and pronounced dead at a hospital shortly afterward.
It’s the second apparently accidental gunshot death of a child this month in the area, authorities said. — AP
