I have small kids and lots of dogs and don't sleep with the door to my bedroom closed.
Firing blindly at a rattling doorknob is just stupid. There is not enough information to this story. Anyone with small children knows that they often come to your room when they awake in the middle of the night.
How big was this house/apartment? He didn't hear a sound before he gunned down the child? Plus "He feels bad" about killing a child? He's not destroyed? Sheesh!
I think this guy was drunk and doesn't know much about guns.
It's tragic all the way around.

Agreed. I had 3 small children. I’ve been awoken in the middle of the night by a “strange” sound numerous times. I got grabbed my gun, got out of bed and check things out. First, always the kid’s rooms, rechecked my room, to check on the wife (to be sure she didn't get up when I was checking on the kids), then checked rest of the house. You don’t shoot first and ask question later IN YOUR OWN HOUSE.
I agreed either drunk or an idiot. Unfortuanatley, I think there is more to this sad story.
