Police said the weapon was a BB gun, and its location posed a risk of harm to the child.
Gaines' attorney said Monday the photo was a misunderstanding and the child wasn't in danger. He said his client was holding his 1-year-old daughter and playing with the gun with his nephews when a relative photographed them while he happened to be holding the gun.
