[QUOTE="HFS, post: 2684732, member: 8862"] Extremely sad. I send my prayers to all involved. [B][SIZE=2]Woman shot, killed at Walmart in Idaho by her toddler: reports[/SIZE][/B] A woman was shot and killed at a Walmart store in northern Idaho on Tuesday and local media reported that the gun went off when her toddler pulled a handgun from her purse and discharged it accidentally. Lieutenant Stu Miller of the Kootenai County Sheriff's Office said on Twitter that a woman in her late 20s was killed in a shooting at the Walmart in Hayden. "Prelim investigation shows shooting was accidental," Miller said in a tweet. Hayden is located in Kootenai County, north of Coeur d'Alene. Miller did not say on Twitter who fired the gun and could not immediately be reached by phone. Local KREM-TV reported that the woman had been shopping with four children when one of them, who was believed to be about two years old, reached into her purse and grabbed the gun. "A very sad incident occurred at our store today in Hayden involving the death of a female customer. We are working with the Kootenai Sheriff's department as they investigate what happened," Walmart spokeswoman Brooke Buchanan said. Buchanan said the store had been closed and would remain so until further notice. [url]http://www.reuters.com/article/2014/12/30/us-usa-idaho-gun-idUSKBN0K81I820141230[/url] [/QUOTE]
