Steve Cooper says the shooting occurred at 10:30 a.m. Friday. The child was taken to a hospital where he underwent surgery. Cooper says the wound didn't appear to be life threatening. Cooper says the mother, 24-year-old Hannah Workman of Charleston, has been charged with gross neglect. She was being held Saturday night at the South Central Regional Jail. The detective says police also are looking for a 16-year-old male who may have been in the house at the time of the shooting. Information from: The Charleston Gazette, http://www.wvgazette.com |
