Shocking footage of toddler playing with loaded handgun in Indiana
Telegraph, 17 Jan 2023
A US police reality series showed the moment a toddler played with a loaded handgun in the apartment block hallway.
Neighbours reported the incident to the police and the child’s father was arrested for child neglect. The father who owns the gun previously lied to the police about having the weapon in his possession.
The boy was not harmed during the incident but pulled the trigger while playing with the weapon and only survived because the bullets were not in the chamber of the gun.
