From the news article at the link:
"Shortly after 9 a.m., a 41-year-old man attempted to unload his firearm while it was placed in the back seat of a vehicle, the news release said. The firearm discharged and struck an 11-year-old boy in the chest."
Gun pointed in the direction of another person in a vehicle?
Handling a gun (trying to unload it) while it is pointed in the direction of another person, in a vehicle no less?
What is wrong with people?
Sad. 41 year-old man should be charged with negligent manslaughter, at the very least.

One of the most important reasons for having weapons unloaded until in stand and unload as soon as you get ready to leave the stand.

If it’s day light(am hunt) I will put a round back in chamber and hunt back to truck ….a pm hunt the gun stays unloaded Back to truck. A pm hunt the gun gets loaded as soon as I leave the truck then unloaded at tree… No need to carry a loaded gun in the dark IMO

I'm extremely careful when handling a firearm, but making one bad decision in that split second and this is what you can get.
Sad.
