JACKSON (AP) — Jackson Police are investigating a deadly shooting involving a 5-year-old boy.

Cmdr. Tyree Jones says officials are investigating how the child, identified as Jayden Pempleton, got shot.

Jones tells WLBT-TV the child was taken Saturday to Batson Children’s Hospital with a gunshot wound to the face. He was pronounced dead upon arrival. Authorities were called to a home in Jackson around 10:55 a.m.

Jones says it appears the gunshot wound was self-inflicted. Officials say preliminary findings show the child was shot accidentally. Jones says officials do not expect charges to be filed against anyone at this time.
