Tragic Accidental Shootings Claim Lives of Children in Indianapolis

A child died of a self-inflicted accidental gunshot wound in a townhouse in the Amber Woods Apartments in Indianapolis. The incident was reported as an accidental self-inflicted, but detectives are investigating to determine what exactly happened. The NRA's annual conference was held in Indianapolis, and protesters demonstrated against unintended gunfire. This year, there have been at least six accidental or unintended shootings of juveniles in Indianapolis and Lafayette, claiming four lives. IMPD Officer Samone Burris advised adults who keep guns in homes with children to seek information and education about gun safety.
