For the second time in two weeks, a young Cincinnati, Ohio boy found his mother’s loaded gun and shot himself.  In this incident, a 6-year old shot himself in the leg.  His injuries are not considered life threatening.

Once again, the boy’s mother has been arrested.  Once again, the report does not indicate how the boy will be cared for when he is released from the hospital.
