US: 5-year-old boy accidentally killed himself with gun he found in his parents’s bedroom

Utah: A small town south of Salt Lake City is mourning the death of a 5-year-old boy who accidentally shot himself with a handgun he found in his parent’s bedroom. The boy found a 9 mm handgun in the back room of his house on Thursday afternoon and fired a single shot to the head, said Lt. Mike Wall with the Santaquin Police Department. The boy’s parents, and possibly one of his siblings, were inside the home when the shooting happened but were not with him in the room. The father went into the room as soon as he heard the gunshot and started CPR, but the boy died at the scene.
