That headline pretty much says it all, doesn't it? Don't let strangers watch your kids . . . especially strangers who either own handguns or just leave them lying around where a 2-year-old can get a hold of them. Why shoot an 8-year-old? Why not? Who would you like to have shot when you were two if you got your hands on a gun? Think about it!The details are sketchy on the story (the toddler refuses to talk until his mob lawyer can cut a deal with the DA) but needless to say, you're not likely to find another headline like this.
Until at least next week. Hey, this is Florida, we're surpised this doesn't happen every day! At right, the mug shot of the arrested babysitter, Trevaris Brown.
Here's more from the Miami Herald:
Trevaris Brown, 18, charged with child neglect, is free on $7,500 bond. According to police, Brown told Miami Detective Fernando Bosch that he was baby sitting a group of children ranging from 1 to 10 years old Saturday night at 5930 NW First Ave. He admitted ``he left the children home alone and went to the store.'' While away, a 2-year-old got a hold of a gun and shot the girl. She is expected to make a full recovery, police said. It was unclear who the gun belonged to.
