A court document alleges Jason and Kimberly Grayson were sleeping as their son entered their bedroom and removed the gun from a safe, which he had accessed on at least one occasion before.
MUNCIE — The parents of a boy who accidentally shot his 5-year-old sister with a gun he found inside their home have been charged in connection with the girl's death.
Police found the girl shot in the head as they responded about 2:25 p.m. July 26 to the 2800 block of Monroe Street. They later determined her 6-year-old brother accidentally shot her with a gun he found inside the home. Jacob Grayson told police during an interview his son had gotten to the safe before, so he moved it to the other side of the dresser,"rather than placing it somewhere inaccessible to a small child," the affidavit alleges.
The couple also said they had taken their son to a shooting range before and showed him how to shoot.
