..it was a tragic accident, the two people that were arrested are friends of the mother...negligence maybe at leaving the air rifle loaded but the person who shot the child was told that the gun wasn't loaded and he didn't purposefully pull the trigger either...there was no intent or evil so far as I can see...

..a similar-ish accident happened a little while ago near where I live, which was also an accident and the child sadly died...I think it's more looking into the keeping of air rifles and air guns...
