2yr old Kaleb Ahles shot himself dead
with his father's gun which he found in
the glove compartment of their family car.
The sad incident happened yesterday
January 21st . The mum told Florida
police that she and Kaleb's dad had been
moving out of their home is Eastlake
Florida and had left Kaleb inside the car
briefly to pick some things when they
heard a loud bang from inside the car.
They ran to the car to find the toddler had
mistakenly shot himself in the chest with
a .380 calibre loaded handgun. The
parents said they began performing CPR
but he was pronounced dead after
arriving at a local hospital.
A Florida police officer said
"Kaleb had entered the vehicle at some
point as the family was loading the
vehicle to move out of the house. In a
situation like this, where it looks like the
gun was secured, they took reasonable
steps, and you can lawfully keep a gun in
a vehicle in a glove box. It was secured, it
looks like in the glove box itself, and
sometimes just bad things happen."
The police said the parents would not face
charges.
"I don't think anybody can punish these
parents any more than what they've been
punished. This is something they will
carry with them and live with the rest of
their lives."

I've even gone so far as to verbalize it specifically, time is too precious to waste on trivial arguments and negativities. I'd rather get on to the more fun and rewarding stuff right away!
