Two year old finds gun, kills himself

Rusk (WBAP/KLIF) – A two year old boy accidentally shot himself to death while visiting a relative’s home in east Texas. He and his younger brother apparently found a loaded pistol while they were exploring the family member’s house near the town of Rusk, some 130 miles southeast of Dallas. Cherokee County Sheriff’s investigators say the boy was playing with the gun in a bedroom when it went off, shooting him in the neck. He died before first responders could reach him.
