Police in Clermont County, Ohio, said a 2-year-old boy was shot outside a home on Wednesday, November 11. Officers responded to the 100 block of South Third Street in the village of Williamsburg at about 3:48 p.m.

Williamsburg police Sergeant Merv Clemons said the boy's father was cleaning his Dodge Durango in the driveway with the car doors open when the boy climbed into the passenger seat. The boy then removed a 9mm pistol that was magnetically mounted on the passenger-side console and shot himself in the leg, Clemons said.
