[Sugar Cookie]

A 4-year-old Indiana boy is in critical condition after a gun his father had concealed in his clothing discharged while the two were wrestling, police said.

The Herald-Times reported that the two were play wrestling Sunday night on a bed when the gun — which the 36-year-old father had concealed near the small of his back — fell and discharged one shot. The boy and his father were both shot in the head, according to a news release from the Monroe County Sheriff’s Office.

The boy was taken by helicopter to Riley Hospital for Children in Indianapolis, where he was listed in critical condition Monday. The father was taken to IU Health Methodist in Indianapolis with injuries that were not life-threatening.

Authorities have not identified the boy or his father, but Sheriff Brad Swain said they may do so later Monday.

I voted "yes", because I would hate for this to be the next "distracted; left kid in hot car" meme. Who just wears their gun 24x7? Wouldn't it be uncomfortable and get your attention that way?

Yes, that idiot should be charged.

Yes. Let’s use some common sense here. You don’t need to rough house with your kid while carrying. And why do you need to conceal in your own home? That’s what gun safes are for.

Having a small penis is a 24/7 problem, Satanica.

The dad should be trained. The truest gun safe is safe gun handling. Safety on and nothing in the chamber. Although a friend who's a retired green beret platoon leader simply dumped his guns when he had his children years ago - but his hands are registered weapons. No, you can avoid shooting accidentally if you're not retarded.

Police say a 4-year-old Indiana boy died Thursday after an apparent accidental shooting earlier this week.

A preliminary investigation by detectives found that a 36-year-old man with a concealed handgun on the small of his back was play-wrestling on a bed with his 4-year-old son.

While the two were playing, the gun fell and a shot was fired, striking both the father and the 4-year-old in the head, according to police.

The child was critically injured and taken to IU Health Bloomington Hospital before being flown to Riley Children’s Hospital in Indianapolis. He was identified as Tripp Shaw.

The father was expected to recover from his injuries, police said.
