[QUOTE="WPLG, post: 46108, member: 158"] An 8-year-old boy accidentally shot two young girls over the weekend and now his father is facing charges, authorities said. Investigators say the boy found the gun Saturday inside a motel room they were staying in and started playing with it before accidentally shooting 1-year-old Kacey Bass and her 2-year-old sister. “He pulls the gun from the holster, starts playing with it and fires a round into the 1-year-old toddler, ultimately killing the 1-year-old. The bullet then goes through and strikes one of the 2-year-old toddlers who’s injured but is expected to recover,” Escambia County Sheriff Chip Simmons said at a press conference.
