Macomb County Sheriff officials say a 12-year-old girl has been treated and released from a hospital after apparently being accidentally shot by her father. Captain Tony Wickersham said the 40-year-old man was working on his recently purchased handgun about 8:15 p.m. Tuesday, when he pulled the trigger, thinking it was unloaded. Wickersham said the bullet hit the girl’s wrist, and then went into her leg. (Michigan does not require a license nor a safety test, to purchase a gun.)
