Girl flown to hospital after being shot with air gun in Bucks County

HULMEVILLE, Pa. (WPVI) -- A girl had to be flown to the hospital after she was shot with a BB gun on Saturday in Bucks County.

It happened just before 3:30 p.m. in the 900 block of Bellevue Avenue in Hulmeville.

The 9-year-old was hit in the chest. Police say she was accidentally shot by a 21-year-old family member.

She was rushed to Saint Mary Medical Center before being flown to Children's Hospital of Philadelphia.

Her grandmother told Action News the girl is fine. She was taken to CHOP out of an abundance of caution.

The girl lives at the home where it happened with her parents and two siblings.
