Two toddlers were hospitalised in critical condition after a playmate accidentally shot them with a loaded gun at a daycare in the US state of Michigan.
The toddler fired either one or two shots that struck two children — both three years old, according to US media which also reported that there were multiple guns inside the home.
“I’m not going to guess on what occurred in there, but obviously there were weapons in proximity to where kids are, and that’s totally unacceptable to me,” Dearborn Police Chief Ronald Haddad told reporters.
The home daycare was run by Samantha Eubanks, herself a mother of six who regularly took care of other children according to neighbors and family members.
Eubanks did not permit her husband Tim to keep weapons in their home, according to a woman identified by US media as her sister.
“She would always say don’t you ever bring a gun in this house, it’s not going to happen,” Ashley Escobedo told assembled reporters at the scene.
The police chief told US media that the investigation was ongoing and charges were possible. (AFP)
