FORT WORTH, Texas – Detectives in Fort Worth are investigating the death of a 3-year-old boy who was found with a gunshot wound to the head.
The Tarrant County medical examiner’s office identified the boy as Jonnie Colon, who died Wednesday night at a home northeast of downtown.
Police say the boy was found in a bedroom and family members told investigators that he discovered a shotgun and accidentally shot himself.

- Even banning single-shot guns wouldn't have stopped this, but I still support allowing single-shot guns, with real registration requirements, similar to registering a car.
- Even if some gun owners are diligent, you will still have guns like this making it into the hands of those who shouldn't have them.
- Another kid killed with a gun. Sad for America.

And there was no picture available of this child who was killed with a gun, so here is a picture of a toddler killed with a gun at Sandy Hook. Her name was Grace McDonnell.
