Angry Ohio boy, 4, shoots baby sitter Tue Jan 6, 12:22 am ET JACKSON, Ohio – Police say an angry 4-year-old Ohio boy grabbed a gun from a closet and shot his baby sitter. Eighteen-year-old Nathan Beavers was hospitalized Sunday with minor wounds to his arm and side after the shotgun attack. Police say another teen was also injured. Witnesses told police the child was angry because Beavers accidentally stepped on his foot. Beavers was watching the child at a mobile home in Jackson with several other teenagers and several other children. Jackson County Sheriff John Shashteen says authorities are investigating. The child has not been charged. Quote
Guest lvdkeyes Posted January 15, 2009 Posted January 15, 2009 The child has not been charged. I should hope not, but the parents should be charged with child endangerment for leaving the gun where a 4 year old would have access to it. Quote
