Police say an Ohio officer’s 2-year-old son died after shooting himself with his father’s gun Friday morning.
Officers responded to a home in Cleveland about 10:30 a.m., the Associated Press reported. The child died at a hospital, according to the Cleveland Division of Police.
The toddler’s father, 54-year-old Jose Pedro, is a 23-year veteran of the Cleveland police department.
Preliminary investigation indicated that the toddler got hold of his father’s service weapon, according to the AP.
Submitters note: How does a 2 year old get a gun? This smacks of negligence or laziness.

The wheels of justice turn in mysterious ways in Cleveland.
Ricardo Sims was sentenced to prison a couple months ago for leaving a gun where a pre-schooler got a hold of it with fatal results.
Jose Pedro did the exact same thing with identical results, and is charged with...not a damn thing. |

QUOTES
TO REMEMBER |
For, in principle, there is no difference between a law prohibiting the wearing of concealed arms, and a law forbidding the wearing such as are exposed; and if the former be unconstitutional, the latter must be so likewise. But it should not be forgotten, that it is not only a part of the right that is secured by the constitution; it is the right entire and complete, as it existed at the adoption of the constitution; and if any portion of that right be impaired, immaterial how small the part may be, and immaterial the order of time at which it be done, it is equally forbidden by the constitution. [Bliss vs. Commonwealth, 12 Ky. (2 Litt.) 90, at 92, and 93, 13 Am. Dec. 251 (1822) |
