In a distressing incident, a 1-year-old boy was shot twice by his 6-year-old brother in their home in Detroit, leading to his hospitalization. The incident occurred as the younger child was seated in a baby bouncer, and his elder sibling mistakenly fired a loaded semi-automatic weapon that had been left unsecured in the house. Local authorities have urged parents to take stricter gun safety measures, including using gun locks, safes, and high shelves to help prevent such unfortunate accidents. While the parents of the children are cooperating with the police in their investigation, it remains to be seen whether the Wayne County Prosecutor’s Office will file any charges in the case. A newly-signed law will require gun owners to keep their weapons in locked storage boxes or containers if there is a minor present or likely to be present on the premises, beginning in 2024.
