Hi Feona1962! sounds very strange.. the weight of a shotgun(doesn't say what type) should have made it near impossible for a Four year old to aim it. Its just a shame that the kid didn't shoot the idiot that left it loaded! if thats truly what happened. I bet the teen was messing with it and it went off.
