    2 year old hit by stray glancing bullet near where 84 Bravo lives. Bullet struck the child in back of head and was flown to two different Med Centers.
    Happened on Friday. Story on WJHL in J.C. TN. As of yesterday they had no clue where bullet was fired.
    Prayers for all involved please.

    Not much info. Currently. 2 year old girl playing in her own backyard. Initial report stated a bullet ricocheted off a swingset and hit her in the back of the head. Happened in Laurel Bloomery. (About 10 miles or so from where I live. Pass through there twice a day. Several friends and co-workers live there. Tragic. Several of us were discussing it at work yesterday. "Searching for the shooter." We are curious if they will come forward or hide like a Coward. In the County and legal to shoot, but obviously not toward a house.

    Tragic.

    I bet he was hoping for a misfire.

    Heard today from a friend, who has been getting facebook updates from a relative of the girl, (obviously unconfirmed.) That the girl had been hit with a .22. Was in a medically induced coma, but that intra-cranial pressure was dropping, and she had moved her head.

    No one has come forward.

    We were discussing this (again) at work today. I eat lunch with a couple guys that live in Laurel Bloomery. With it being a .22, we are thinking a teen or pre-teen shooting unsupervised, and now afraid to come forward.

    Another friend has a buddy who lives on the road the girl lives on. Was shooting over the weekend. Had four Sheriffs cars in his driveway in very short order.

    I live in the boonies. Laurel Bloomery is Way out in the boonies. The road the little girl lives on is way, way out in the boonies. (Deer Run.) Cherokee Bow Hunters have a Camp at the end of the road.

    Not too far fetched for someone to be shooting out there. If you live there, you know where the houses are.
    Shooting toward a house is just STUPID.
