Girl in costume at Halloween party shot after being mistaken for skunk  Published October 21, 2012
Associated Press    FREEDOM, Pa. –  Police say a costumed 9-year-old girl was accidentally shot outside a western Pennsylvania home during a Halloween party by a relative who thought she was a skunk.
New Sewickley Township police say the girl was over a hillside and wearing a black costume and a black hat with a white tassel. Chief Ronald Leindecker says a male relative mistook her for a skunk and fired a shotgun, hitting her in the shoulder Saturday night.
 
Leindecker tells the Beaver County Times that the girl was alert and talking when she was flown to a hospital in Pittsburgh, about 30 miles away. Her condition was unavailable.
Leindecker says the man hadn't been drinking and he doesn't know whether charges will be filed.

This brings to my mind the squirrel hunter a few years ago that shot a deer hunter out of a tree stand.  I'm all for the right to hunt but there are some people that just don't need to be in the woods with a firearm.  As the saying goes, "You can't fix stupid."
