    Kylee Dawn Woods of Pickens County South Carolina, age 11, was shot and killed when her father attempted to eject a round from his .40 caliber handgun.  According to a news report, Woods’ father “told police he had ejected the magazine and did not pull the trigger. He told deputies he does not know what caused the gun to fire.”  Law enforcement officials concluded that no foul play was involved.  "It appears that this is just a very tragic accident," they said.

    Kylee was a 6th grader at Dacusville Middle School.  Her principal, Wanda Tharpe, sent a letter to middle school parents that said:

    Today, the DMS family was saddened to learn that 6th grade student Kylee Woods has passed away unexpectedly. Kylee was a sweet young lady and will be missed by her friends and her teachers.  Kylee always had a smile on her face and was willing to help those around her.  Her kindness will never be forgotten as we remember her and her time with us at Dacusville.
