A woman is recovering after she was shot by a 3-year-old inside a home in the Easton suburb of Wilson Borough, Northampton County.
The incident happened Sunday at a house on Forest Street, near 22nd Street. Witnesses told borough police that they saw 41-year-old Brian Siegfried handling a gun on the front porch of the house. They said he cocked the gun and placed it on a table near four children, all under 5 years old, then walked across the street.
A 3-year-old then picked up the gun and shot the 33-year-old woman in the back, according to authorities. The woman was taken to a hospital and underwent emergency surgery.
She is expected to survive. The child was not harmed.
Siegfried was forbidden from possessing a firearm due to a restraining order. He is charged with aggravated assault, reckless endangerment and weapons offenses. Siegfried is in police custody awaiting arraignment.
