Louisville police said a mother waited two hours before calling for help after her 3-year-old son was shot on Tuesday.
Police spokesman Officer Carey Klain told The Courier-Journal the boy was shot with a .45-caliber handgun after he was in the line of fire during an argument between his mother and a man.
The mother, 28-year-old Laquisha Mosby, is charged with assault, criminal abuse, wanton endangerment and tampering with evidence.
Police also arrested 34-year-old Shawn Martin and charged him with assault, criminal abuse, being a convicted felon in possession of a handgun, wanton endangerment and tampering with evidence.
According to the arrest citation, a court order had banned Martin from contact with the child.
The boy was in critical condition at Kosair Children's Hospital.
Yes, adding the probably is appropriate. There is no one size fits all.
It’s sad that they both had to experience being widows, but their reconnecting is a lovely story.
All the best.
I haven’t looked yet and I already have a picture of these people in my mind and I’d bet everything I have that I’m right.
I was right.
Wow, you are off your meds.
Women kill far more babies and children than men.
My wife and I both admit that if we had to do it over, we probably would have held off until her kids were grown.
But thankfully it worked out, and I was a good male influence in their lives. Our older son just gave us our first grandson in April.

And had you held off, you’d have missed the opportunity to be a good male influence in those kids’ lives. A net loss from where I sit.
Can’t you read??? I said a LOT.....did I say MOST? NO....now apologize if you are man enough.
