Suddenly, something unexpected occurred. Veronica had a concealed weapons permit. His son, a two-year-old toddler, who was left in a shopping cart, reached into his mother’s purse and grabbed a small-caliberloaded handgun, which discharged one time. He fatally shot his mother. The scene of the shooting took place shortly after 10a.m. in the store’s electronics department. The store closed and was not expected to reopen until Wednesday morning. All thechildren were taken to a relative’s house. Stupid accidents are just stupid. Not more things to add here. Children handling gunsare not a good thing.”A very sad incident occurred at our store today in Hayden involving the death of a female customer. We are working with the Kootenai Sheriff’s department as they investigate what happened,” Walmart spokeswoman Brooke Buchanan said.
