The rules of firearm safety were broken once again, and someone has paid the ultimate price, once again. :(

I guess no one was looking out for her that day. I find it very odd that all these so called accidental shootings, seem to hit their unintended victims in the head. :scratch: :whistle:

A death that could have been prevented, very sad. Remove mag,check chamber,keep finger off trigger!

I thought the article said "The gun went off, firing a bullet through a wall."
Yeah that is odd, he must be a good shot and have X-ray vision.:etoh:

"the gun went off" should be replaced with "the firearm was negligently fired" since guns just don't go off.

Sad for the family though.

ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. (AP) — Authorities say a Florida pastor's daughter who was accidentally shot in the head in a church died Saturday at a hospital.

The Pinellas County Sheriff's Office says 20-year-old Hannah Kelley was pronounced dead at about 10:20 a.m. Saturday at Bayfront Medical Center. An autopsy is pending.

Kelley had been hospitalized since Feb. 12, when she was struck in the head by a bullet at Grace Connection Church in St. Petersburg, where her father Tim Kelley is pastor.

Investigators have said Moises Zambrana was showing his gun in a small closet to another church member interested in buying a firearm. The St. Petersburg Times reports (http://bit.ly/w9KoLn ) that the other church member, Dustin Bueller, was Hannah Kelley's fiancée.

Zambrana reportedly removed the magazine from the Ruger 9mm weapon but did not know that a round was still in the chamber. The gun went off, firing a bullet through a wall. Kelley was struck in the head.

The sheriff's office says detectives are still investigating the shooting. No charges have been filed.

No such thing as "accidental" when it comes to guns. Someone is always at fault and does something they're not supposed to do. Idiots.

poor girl. it really is tragic to see someone getting killed by others who make such fundamental errors in gun handling, or anything else for that matter.

her fiance, wow.

this is the type of shi that leads to stupid mag disconnect safeties.
who the hell carries a semi-auto without knowing how it functions.who the hell just pulls the trigger of a gun handed to them.

Total failure on safety checking a weapon. Not to mention why would the guy bring the firearm to a church to sell it? Really? Can't that happen outside, or in another time/place?
