Shooting of Charles Vacca : ウィキペディア英語版 | Shooting of Charles Vacca On August 25, 2014, 39-year-old Charles Vacca was accidentally shot and killed by a nine-year-old girl he had been teaching to shoot an Uzi.〔 The accident occurred at the Arizona Last Stop gun range (also known as "Bullets and Burgers") in White Hills, Arizona, where Vacca had worked for about eighteen months. According to county law officials, the girl, whose identity has not been revealed, will not face criminal charges and the shooting is being viewed as an "industrial accident". The girl's instruction was legal because Arizona does not have a law prohibiting people under a certain age from firing a weapon. The minimum age set by the shooting range to fire a weapon is eight years old provided that the child is supervised by a parent, as the girl was.〔 It was also legal for Arizona Last Stop to own fully automatic weapons because they were made before the passage of the Firearm Owners Protection Act in 1986, which prohibited the sale of such weapons if they were made after the law was passed. ==Sequence of events== According to the girl's father, their family had traveled from their Las Vegas hotel to the Last Stop at approximately 9:45 AM. The family then took a ride on a monster truck before arriving at the gun range. At the range, the girl's father was the first to shoot, followed by the girl herself. The girl's mother videotaped her daughter trying out the Uzi, and said she watched as the gun recoiled and her daughter lost control of it.〔 The girl reportedly said the Uzi was "too much" for her after she fired the weapon and was unable to control the muzzle rise, causing the barrel to be directed at Vacca. Vacca is believed to have died from a single shot to the head. He was airlifted to a Las Vegas hospital.〔〔
