Garland police are investigating the shooting death of a boy believed to be 3 years old.
The shooting happened just before 6 p.m. Wednesday inside a home in the 4700 block of Maritime Cove near Lake Ray Hubbard, Garland police spokesman Officer Joe Harn said.
Paramedics rushed the child with a gunshot wound to the head to Children's Medical Center of Dallas shortly after the incident was reported, police said.
"As we find out more exact circumstances, we'll determine whether it's just strictly accidental or if there's any charges to be brought," Harn said. "And right now in this investigation, we're just not sure yet. We're trying to find out exactly what happened."
The boy's parents and at least three other young children were in the home at the time of the shooting, police said.
