Three-Year Old Shoots Himself with Found Gun

Jared Green, Jr., of Hamilton, Ohio, age 3, found a gun in his home and accidentally shot himself to death today. He picked up a firearm,” a caller told the 911 operator. “So, he did shoot himself, is that right?” the operator asked. “Yes, we believe so, yes,” the caller responded. The caller told the operator that the boy, who had shot himself in the head, was awake and breathing but was having seizures.

The shooting is still under investigation. “It just broke my heart,” a neighbor said. “I really hope that god gives them some type of comfort, but it’s really sad, and it’s really concerning.”

This is at least the fourth accident in four days in which a child, age 3 or under, was killed or injured in an unintentional shooting.
