    In Richmond, Indiana, a four-year old child was flown to a Dayton, Ohio hospital after suffering an accidental gunshot wound.  Police arrested 23-year-old Khylier Childress-Shelby and preliminarily charged him with possession of a handgun without a license and neglect of a dependent.  Although the charges are consistent with an incident in which the child found a loaded gun and shot himself accidentally, police have not yet publicly described what happened.
