When questioned by authorities, Mr. Jones stated he had taken his Glock .40 handgun from the glove compartment of his truck. He was walking to the house when he tripped and fell, then accidentally shot himself in the leg just above the knee.
Jones yelled to his wife for help. Aleisha was upstairs bathing their young son when she heard her husband's call for help. When she arrived on the screened porch, she tried to secure the gun but her son beat her to the gun.
After attempting to take the gun from the child, a round was fired. Aleisha was hit in the left side of her neck.

Another reminder, to train your kids to use the gun you carry. Never know when you might shoot yourself, and your kid might shoot your wife....
Another question comes to mind, alot of folks say "manual safetys kill people", like thats the ONLY outcome of a gun having a manual safety, its interesting that that works both ways, and nothing is ever black and white.
I found it an interesting story.
