Child accidentally shoots, kills 4-year-old girl in north St. Louis
SUMMARY: Of course! Please provide the content you’d like me to summarize, and I’ll help you with it.
A child accidentally shot and killed a four-year-old girl in north St. Louis early Tuesday morning.
Authorities are investigating the incident as an accidental shooting. It apparently took place as multiple young children were inside a home with no adults there. A city police spokesperson said the department is heartbroken over what has happened.
The shooting unfolded around midnight with police rushing to a shooting call on the 700 block of Thrush in the Baden neighborhood, basically between Hall Street and North Broadway in north St. Louis city.
Police spokesperson Mitch McCoy says when officers got there, they found a 4-year-old girl who had been shot and was barely breathing. Officers rushed the child to the hospital in their patrol SUV.
McCoy says one officer conducted CPR on the child while another officer drove the vehicle. Tragically though, the little girl died at the hospital.
McCoy says that while it’s early in the investigation, it appears that four children, all under the age of 10, were inside the home at the time of the shooting, but no adults were at the home.
