Michigan Parents Charged After Toddler Unholsters Loaded Gun at Daycare

A 3-year-old boy pulled a loaded Glock pistol from a backpack at a Canton, Michigan daycare on Monday, passing it to other children before a teacher intervened. The child’s parents, Brandon Ely and Rabab Al Zayad, were charged with misdemeanors on Thursday. Ely, a Detroit police officer, faces a charge of fourth-degree child abuse, while his wife faces unsafe storage charges. No one was injured, but the incident prompted new security measures at the center and an administrative review of the officer’s status.
