Toddler Shot in Head at Ind. Wedding Reception
Source: ABC News
Police say an 18-month-old girl was shot in the head when a man opened fire at a wedding reception in Indiana after scuffling with other guests.
Lawrence police detective Gary Woodruff said the child, Yuridia Sosa, was in critical condition at Methodist Hospital in Indianapolis after surgery Sunday. Her mother, Mariela Rodriguez, and another woman were shot in the legs, but were expected to recover.
At least two shots were fired around 10 p.m. Saturday after three brothers fought with other wedding guests at a reception hall in Lawrence, a community within Indianapolis.
Officers arrested 21-year-old Francisco Ponce on a preliminary charge of attempted murder. His two brothers face lesser charges. It's unclear whether the three men knew the bride and groom.

Yeah, always bring a gun to family events. That way you get to have more family events.
Big bonfire, with the usual suspects taking their usual positions.
They want to blame guns but not the crime/drug culture .

Ban idiots, not guns.....OK, so that would mean the president and over half of congress would be gone......good.

So I'm guessing the DUmmies know these were registered gun owners, right? Because everyone knows if guns were banned this kind of thing would never happen.

The link is in the quote.
One must wonder if these folks were LEGAL gun owners. Their surname leaves one wondering if they are legal US citizens of Hispanic origin or illegal aliens from Mexico. I'd be willing to bet on the latter. Also, I'm not familiar with the carry laws in Indiana, but one could surmise that they weren't carrying legally, either.
