Child's Shooting Death Not Investigated As Homicide

COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. (AP) — Police say the fatal shooting of a 2-year-old boy near Colorado Springs last weekend isn't being investigated as a homicide but that criminal charges are pending.

The El Paso County Sheriff's Office says Lohki Bloom was shot Sunday night. It says the boy's parents flagged down deputies when they arrived at the scene and the mother was holding the boy in her arms.
