Texas: A two-year-old boy accidentally shot his mother and sibling inside a car at a Walmart parking lot in Granbury, Texas, about 60 km southwest of Fort Worth.
As per details, the toddler took loaded gun kept between seat and centre console of his parents’ car parked outside a Walmart.
The 23-year-old mother was shot in the arm and the toddler’s 1-year-old sibling was shot in the leg at about 11.25am.
The child’s father was, reportedly, standing outside the truck next to the driver’s side door and was not injured.
“The bullet went through soft tissue in the [younger child’s] leg, through the mother’s arm, and into her side in her chest area,” Granbury police said in a statement released through the city’s Facebook page.
Police said the mother was transported to a Fort Worth hospital by air and the baby was transported to a Fort Worth hospital by ground.
The baby’s injury is not believed to be life-threatening, police said.
The mother’s injury is potentially more serious, but her current condition is not known at this time.
