I'm waiting to see if the woman even HAD a permit.
Police: 4-year-old accidentally shot herself at Sam's Club
COLUMBIA, SC (WIS) - Police are calling it an accident after a four-year-old girl grabbed a gun out of her grandmother's purse and shot herself in the Harbison Blvd. Sam's Club Monday.
The child was in critical condition Monday afternoon at Palmetto Health Richland Memorial Hospital.
Investigators tell WIS News 10's Stewart Moore they believe the child was sitting in her grandmother's shopping cart when she pulled a small-caliber handgun out of her grandmother's shopping cart and accidentally shot herself in the chest.
The entire incident was captured on surveillance cameras near the store's pharmacy.
CPD spokesman Brick Lewis says the grandmother has not been charged with a crime, and no other injuries have been reported.
Lewis says the child had to undergo emergency surgery at Richland Memorial.

Maybe you ought to wait to know if she had a permit.
And concealed carry permits save lives. Dumb dumb headline.
Yeah, ask that little girl how she's feeling right now!
If someone isn't smart enough to keep a gun out of reach of four-year-old hands, they're not smart enough to have the permit.
And yes, she did have a permit, but did that make a difference to the child who shot herself? She shot herself LEGALLY?
"Dumb, dumb..." Good one. Typical gun-lover kinda of reply.
More guns mean less crime. Proven fact.
Guns save lives.
One example like this is hardly a reason to "not have a concealed carry permit," unless you yourself are incapable of acting responsibly with the permit.
There is one, and only one, reason for you not to have a permit: "I am too dumb and irresponsible to have a permit." Thankfully nearly all of the thousands of concealed carry permit holders do not fall into that catagory.
STIFFLE DEBATE!! STIFFLE DEBATE!!!
Gun lover, and constitution lover, after today's court opinion.
