The Greenville County Sheriff's Office said the tragedy occurred on Thursday, 20 June, when his grandmother and aunt looked after Staber, writes The Daily Mail.

The police tried to help the child before the arrival of the doctors, but the boy died on the way to the hospital.

According to police, the call was received at 13: 55 on Thursday. Kent Dill, from the coroner's office in Greenville County, said the child had found a pistol in his grandmother's bag, took it out and accidentally shot himself in the head.

«Очевидно, он забрался в бабушкину сумку, которая стояла на кровати, каким-то образом извлек пистолет и держал его в руках в момент выстрела», — сказал Дилл.

A study published last year in the Medical Journal of New England found that the weapon is the second leading cause of death for children in the United States between the ages of 1 and 19.

Firearm injuries caused 3 143 deaths, or slightly more than 15% infant mortality.

The researchers found that in every third home in the United States, where there are children up to 18 years, there is a weapon. Nearly half of these weapons are in the public domain and loaded.
