Girl Recovering After Shooting Herself at Sam's Club

Columbia (WLTX) -- The City of Columbia Police Department says a four-year-old girl had shot herself at a Sam's Club in Columbia, and they say the child is now in critical condition.

Investigators say the shooting happened inside the Sam's Club on Harbison Boulevard at approximately 10:50 a.m. on Monday.

According to police, the girl was being taken around the store in a shopping cart by her grandmother. Police say the grandmother had a gun in her purse.

While the grandmother was pushing the girl near the pharmacy area, officers say the little girl took the gun out of the purse and shot herself in the chest.

The girl had emergency surgery Monday afternoon. Police have been told by family members that the girl suffered no damage to her major organs.

Husband shot when wife's gun discharges inside Glendora Sam's Club

A husband and wife were arrested Sunday after a gun they were allegedly carrying in a fanny pack accidentally fired inside a Sam’s Club in Glendora.

Police said it happened about 1:30 p.m. near the entrance to the store. Helen Marie Duncan, 50, was allegedly carrying a handgun inside her fanny pack when she dropped the pack and the gun discharged.

Duncan’s husband, Robert, 48, was struck in the arm. Police got several calls from witnesses about the shooting, but the Duncans didn’t stay around to do any more shopping. They drove to a hospital in San Dimas where police caught up with them. Two hours later, the Duncans were arrested on suspicion of negligently discharging a firearm and illegal possession of handgun without a conceal carry permit.
