Toddler grabs gun from pregnant moms purse, wounds welfare breeding parents with 1 shot as they live in a motel

Authorities say a 3-year-old boy got a hold of a handgun from his mother's purse and fired just one shot that wounded both his parents.

Albuquerque police say the toddler apparently reached for an iPod but found the loaded weapon.

The bullet first struck his father in the buttock and then hit the shoulder of his mother, who is eight months pregnant. His 2-year-old sister was present but unhurt.

Local media reports say police believe Saturday's shooting was accidental.
