| TRAGEDY |
A THREE-year-old girl died after accidentally shot herself in the head when her father left her home alone to visit his girlfriend.
Liliana Moore found the pistol hidden under a mattress as she played in a bedroom of her St Louis, MO apartment.
Pulling it out, she accidentally pulled the trigger, blasting herself in the head.
Neighbors told KTVI they saw a paramedic racing out of the building carrying Lilianna's limp body in his arms, blood pouring from her head.
Becky Lee told the station: "It's more sad than anything. Sad that you can have a three-year-old running around with a loaded gun.
"I can't imagine what their feeling right now. It's a tragedy for that to happen to such a small child."
Police have yet to determine whether to file charges."
It's thought the Liliana's distraught father, Ronnie, had left the child alone, to visit his girlfriend in a nearby apartment when the shooting happened.
Police are still deciding whether to press charges against Moore or his girlfriend.
