A three-year-old girl died after accidentally shooting herself in the
head with a gun she had found hidden under a mattress, police said.
Lilianna Moore, three, had been left home alone by her father, who was out
visiting his girlfriend when his daughter picked up the loaded gun in a
bedroom at their apartment in St Louis, Missouri.
Neighbours reported seeing a paramedic racing out of the building carrying Lilianna's limp
body in his arms, blood pouring from her head.
Shock: A man sits with his head in his hands on the steps of the apartment
block in which Lilianna Moore, three, accidentally shot herself in the head
The horrific accident happened at around 8.40pm on Tuesday,
as Lilianna played in a bedroom at her home in the Shaw neighbourhood.
She found the gun hidden between two mattresses, picked it up and accidentally pulled the trigger.
Lilianna was rushed to hospital, but she was pronounced dead on arrival.
Shocked neighbours who gathered outside the apartment block to grieve said they
couldn't believe a loaded gun had been left in the same room as a toddler.
Tragedy: Police search the apartment where three-year-old Lilianna Moore found a
gun between two mattresses and accidentally shot herself
Home alone: Lilianna Moore lived with her father in this apartment building
in St Louis, Missouri.
He was out visiting his girlfriend when she found
the gun Ali Lee, 24, who lives in the same building, told the Post
Dispatch: 'It's more sad than anything. Sad that you can have a
three-year-old running around with a loaded gun.'
Police have not yet made any arrests, and are still determining whether they will file charges against the girl's father.
Two more St Louis children were badly injured in unrelated shootings within the space of just two hours on Tuesday night.
Investigation: Police say they have not yet filed any charges in the case
A
13-year-old girl was rushed to hospital after she accidentally shot
herself in the side. Police said they did not yet know how she had got
the gun.
Earlier an 11-year-old boy was shot in the neck by a teenager as he played basketball with friends outside his apartment.
Last night he was in a serious condition in hospital.
