2-Year-Old Kills Woman with a Gun at Walmart (VIDEO)

A two-year-old boy accidentally shot and killed his mother at a Walmart in Hayden, Idaho on Tuesday, December 30, 2014.

According to reports, the boy reached into the woman's purse and the gun fired killing her on the spot. She had been shopping with several children and it was unclear in earlier reports if she was related to the boy. The police has since confirmed that she was the boy's mother.
