The parents of 4-year-old twin boys are facing charges after their children allegedly shot themselves with an unsecured gun inside the family’s Florida home, police said.

Keishara Goodrum, 39, was arrested on two counts of child neglect with great bodily harm and Maurice Bright, 40, was arrested for possession of a firearm by a convicted felon.

The Orange County Sheriff’s Office told Fox News Digital in an emailed statement that both children were transferred to Arnold Palmer Children’s Hospital for continued care and are in critical but stable condition.

Deputies initially responded to AdventHealth East Orlando hospital for a report of two 4-year-old boys with gunshot wounds who had been transported to the hospital by their parents.
