A two-year-old boy is said to have accidentally shot and killed his father in Florida in the US, after his parents left a loaded gun unattended.
Local authorities said that, when police officers arrived at the victim’s home near Orlando on the 26th of May, they found the child’s mother providing CPR to her husband.
Law enforcement initially believed the 26-year-old, who died shortly afterwards in hospital, had shot himself, but the eldest of the couple’s three children, later told investigators that the trigger was pulled by his two-year-old brother.
