Parents Charged After Kids Shot | Topeka News

Parents of the child accused of killing their two younger siblings in Ellsworth County now face felony charges themselves—four counts of endangering a child—for allegedly leaving a loaded, unsecured shotgun accessible to their older child, who used it in the tragic shootings. The five-year-old girl died at the scene, and the eight-year-old boy died days later in the hospital. Charges include two level six and two level nine felonies, as prosecutors focus on parental responsibility. The case is still unfolding, with court appearances scheduled for July 28th, highlighting the devastating consequences of firearm safety failures in households.
