Makayla S. Bowling was shot at about 10.30 on Friday evening, when her father accidentally fired a pistol at their home in Washington County, in 90 miles (about 145 km) south of Indianapolis, writes New York Post.

The police arrived at the call and the ambulance service helicopter sent the child to a children's hospital in Louisville, Kentucky, 40 miles (64 km) from the site of the tragedy. Unfortunately, on arrival at the hospital, Makaylu was declared dead.

The incident continues to be investigated by the authorities, but Indiana State police investigators do not intend the actions of their father and believe that the man is telling the truth. A preliminary study of the circumstances showed that the girl’s father was cleaning the pistol inside the house and was confident that the weapon was not loaded. The pistol fired and a bullet accidentally landed on the child.

The name of the man who lost his daughter by tragic negligence, the police did not disclose.
