TL;DR Summary

A 6-year-old boy found a gun and shot his 1-year-old sibling twice in Detroit. The younger child survived and no one has been arrested yet. This incident highlights the need for securing weapons and child safety. At least 128 unintentional shootings by children have occurred in the US this year, resulting in 54 deaths, according to an advocacy group. Michigan Governor Gretchen Whitmer signed a bill in April requiring guns to be locked if it is reasonable to believe a child will be present.
