Jackson, Ohio (US) Police say an angry 4-year-old Ohio boy grabbed a gun from a closet and shot his baby sitter.

Eighteen-year-old Nathan Beavers was hospitalized Sunday with minor wounds to his arm and side after the shotgun attack. Police say another teen was also injured.

Witnesses told police the child was angry because Beavers accidentally stepped on his foot. Beavers was watching the child at a mobile home in Jackson with several other teenagers and several other children.

Jackson County Sheriff John Shashteen says authorities are investigating. The child has not been charged.

4-yr old boy shoots baby sitter in US by Shweta Subhedar on 06 Jan 2009

Now thats certainly a shocking news for everyone. It shows that absence of parents affects the child so much. But above all I just want to ask that how come that gun was so easily available to that 4 yr child...?And thats a very serious matter. People need to think that such offensive material should be away from the children's reach.
