[SecularMotion]

FLORENCE COUNTY, SC (WMBF) - The Florence County Sheriff's Office is investigating how a 7-year-old in Florence was struck by the accidental discharge of a shotgun.

The shooting occurred at the child's father's home at the 1400 block of Willow Trace Drive in Florence at around 10 p.m. Saturday, Sept 8, and there were several people in the home at the time.

Capt. Michael Nunn with the Florence County Sheriff's Office says the shooting appears to be accidental and the child was not the intended victim. Investigators say they are continuing to question the witnesses at the scene. Nunn said right now it's unclear whether or not the shooter had a different, intended victim in mind.

Neighbors who also live on Willow Trace Drive have differing opinions of the safety of their neighborhood.
