[BITList] Florida boy, 11, accidentally shot dead by 4-year-old, police say

[x50type]

Apparently it isn't dawning upon parents yet that a gun in the hands of a 4 year old or a 44 year old can produce the same deadly result.

[and the NRA and wayne lapierre don't want to know; because ANYONE regardless of age, who can pull a trigger, have a 2nd amendment right to bear arms - right wayne?].

 was the gun in question his sister's pretty pink rifle?

An 11-year-old boy has died after a 4-year-old accidentally shot him in a Lake City apartment, authorities said.

The child who was shot Sunday died Tuesday at Shands hospital at the University of Florida in Gainesville.

Lake City police were called to the Cedar Park Apartments on Sunday, where they found Jarvan Jackson injured inside one of the units.

He was in critical condition when he was taken to the hospital in nearby Gainesville. Authorities say Jarvan died at 2:47 p.m. Tuesday.

The Gainesville Sun said police and the Department of Children and Families are investigating how the younger child got the gun. 

They also are trying to determine whether there was adequate supervision for the children at the home.

The relationship between the children wasn't known.
