Trump's Surgeon General Nominee's Childhood Tragedy: Accidental Shooting of Father

Dr. Janette Nesheiwat, nominated by President-elect Donald Trump for Surgeon General, was involved in a tragic accident at age 13 when she accidentally knocked over a gun, resulting in her father's death. This incident, along with her mother's career in nursing, inspired her to pursue medicine. Nesheiwat's nomination has drawn attention due to her personal history and her role as a Fox News contributor. The incident was deemed a 'freak accident' by police, and Nesheiwat has not publicly detailed her involvement until now.

Child Injured by Gunshot in Accidental Incidents in North Side and South Memphis

A two-year-old child was hospitalized in critical but stable condition after being grazed by a bullet in the face, possibly while playing with a handgun in the kitchen area of a North Side home in San Antonio. It is unclear how the child got access to the gun, and detectives are investigating whether the child accidentally set off the gun or if someone else in the house set it off. The child's father was inside the home but did not hear the gun go off. Authorities are working to obtain a search warrant for further investigation.
