The child is expected to recover. No charges have been filed.
From an article:
The incident happened at the motel on SE Greenville Boulevard at 8:30 p.m. Saturday. Police found a 4-year-old shot through the right arm. A rifle was recovered and secured. There were four children and their father in the room. According to police, the father thought the gun was unloaded and under the edge of the bed. The injuries did break the child's arm, but the child should make a full recovery.
Investigators are still looking into the investigation; no charges have been filed.
The article doesn't say why the man felt it necessary to have a rifle in the motel room with him and four children.
Every gun in the hands of a child must first pass through the hands of an adult.
