GERMANTOWN, Maryland (AP) -- A gun brought to a day care center by an 8-year-old boy accidentally went off Tuesday, wounding a 7-year-old girl in the arm, police said.
The boy had the gun in the backpack and was playing with it when it went off at the For Kids We Care center, Montgomery County police spokesman Derek Baliles said.
The girl was taken to Children's Hospital in Washington, he said. Her injury was not considered life-threatening. (Watch police activity at the scene of the shooting -- 1:26)
There were six children in the center at the time of the shooting, which happened around 7 a.m. No one else was hurt.
Police said they do not know where the child got the gun. Names of the children, both from Germantown, a suburb of Washington, were not released.
Police spokeswoman Nancy Nickerson visited the scene shortly after the shooting and said the children were watching television.
"The day care provider there did an excellent job of keeping the children safe and secure and calm," she said.
