Happened around 4pm in the parking lot.

Hearing that the dad went into Sonic left 2 kids in the car with a loaded gun. One accidentally shot the other.

Unreal. Most senseless foolishness

God this is absolutely gut-wrenching. You have to keep that firearm in a responsible place always.

But why leave your car when you are at Sonic?

This location is set up differently. It’s not a drive in but I think it has a drive through.

I cant even think of a scenario unless he got down to order from the patio for some reason or went inside to complain about an order. Also not a good idea to leave two children in the car alone (with an accessible loaded firearm)

Apparently you didn't read the link supplied. Both parents worked at Sonic. The guy was heading inside to start his shift and the woman was getting off.

Still stupid to leave a loaded gun in the car with kids having access.

Hey, they’re working, at least. That’s an achievement in that area of town.

Kinda hard to knuckle check someone at sonic and remain in your car.

I’m sure they will sue child and family services for not making sure their kids knew how to handle a gun unsupervised
