A 38-year-old Collierville mother was charged Tuesday afternoon with reckless endangerment after her 17-year-old son shot his 15-year-old sister Saturday using their mother's gun.


The girl remains in serious condition at the Regional Medical Center at Memphis.


The incident occurred Saturday at the family's home.

Ward told officers she gave her son her 9mm Luger to "play with" and to make sure the magazine was fully loaded for the next time she carried it.


The teenage boy took the magazine out and then pointed the gun at his sister, the report said.

There was apparently a bullet in the chamber, police said.

The girl was sitting on the other end of the couch next to her boyfriend. She was shot in the upper back...

Autopsies show a gunshot wound to the head was the cause of death for a man and his estranged wife, a case that authorities continue to investigate as a murder-suicide.




The preliminary autopsy results are consistent with the police statement that the man apparently shot his wife and then turned the gun on himself, the deputy coroner said.


The couple were pronounced dead at about 4:40 p.m. Saturday.

You're not anti-gun, are you?
 
You're not anti-gun, are you?

No, I'm not. Growing up in the country we used to have hunting rifles in the cupboard in the back entrance. Going to a neighbor's place it wasn't unusual to see a rifle leaning up against the wall near their back door. Securing a rifle meant putting it in an unlocked cupboard with the shells on a shelf just above the rifles.

Maybe it was coincidence but I don't recall one home burglary.
