Relative: Woman killed in Wal-Mart 'loving mother'

HAYDEN, Idaho (AP) - A relative of the woman who was accidentally shot and killed by her 2-year-old son at an Idaho Wal-Mart says she was a "loving mother."

The Kootenai County sheriff's department has identified the victim as 29-year-old Veronica J. Rutledge, of Blackfoot, Idaho.

Authorities say she was shopping Tuesday morning with her son when the boy reached into her purse and grabbed a small-caliber handgun, which discharged.

The victim's father-in-law, Terry Rutledge, says the woman was "taken much too soon."

The shooting occurred in the Wal-Mart in Hayden, Idaho, a town about 40 miles northeast of Spokane, Washington.

  1. Always a very good person,or in a quiet neighborhood where nothing like this has ever happened before.Both of the aforementioned are accidents waiting for a place to happen because both induce laxness.Nothing is wrong with good people and quiet neighborhoods mind you,but absolutely nothing stays the same forever.
