Once again, politeness turns out to be child’s play.

Investigators say the child and his father went over to an older man’s home, a friend, to help work on the flooring Thursday. When the father and homeowner went to get more supplies, police say the child was left in the care of a woman at the home, who didn’t live there.

Police say the woman had just walked out of the room for a minute, unaware of the gun, which wasn’t readily visible. That’s when investigators say the child found it and accidentally shot himself.

Politeness with your paramour is paramount.

A woman was hospitalized early Tuesday after being accidentally shot by her boyfriend as the couple sat inside a car in north Houston, according to investigators.

The couple was parked at America’s Best Value Inn near Airline Drive and the North Freeway about 1:35 a.m. when the weapon discharged, the Houston Police Department said. Investigators believe the man was either showing off or simply playing around with the weapon when it fired.
