2-Year Old Shot In Head With BB Gun Still Critical, Charges Unlikely

A 2-year old girl in Port Salerno is still in critical condition after deputies say her toddler brother accidentally shot her in the head with a BB gun.  

The Martin County Sheriff's Office says criminal charges are unlikely.  

The girl is recovering at St. Mary's Medical Center after the incident this week.  Officials say the victim and her family lost power at their Okeechobee County home, so they were staying with the girl's grandmother in Martin.  

It's not clear how the BB gun was removed from a closet in the home or how the nearly 3 year old brother was able to get a hold of it.
