A THREE-YEAR-OLD girl accidentally shot herself in a horrifying ordeal after picking up an unattended firearm.<\/p>\n

The nightmarish event was caught on CCTV and shows the tot – named Serenity – shoot herself in the hand.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

The toddler sustained a serious injury and required surgery.<\/p>\n

The alarming ordeal occurred in her Florida home, and just moments before it happened she had been watching TV with a relative.<\/p>\n

Serenity was treated at Nicklaus Children's Hospital\u00a0where she stayed for three nights before returning home to recover.<\/p>\n

The girls grandma, Robin Fuller, has posted the chilling video on Facebook and captioned it: "Video of when my granddaughter shot her self at her OTHER GRANDMA HOUSE."<\/p>\n

Young is now facing charges of child neglect resulting in great bodily harm but was released on bond on Tuesday evening.<\/p>\n

The relative was watching football on TV at a home in the 11000 block of Southwest 220th Terrace, according to WSVN.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The shocking video shows Serenity running to the couch and grabbing the gun that was left on it.<\/p>\n

Just seconds later it fires and she can be seen doubled over in pain and cradling her hand whilst her relative rushes over to console her.<\/p>\n

Her four-year-old brother was close by and can be seen covering his ears after he hears the loud noise.<\/p>\n

The toddlers were supposedly being minded by her other grandma, Fuller told\u00a0WSVN, but only Serenity, Young and the disabled adult were witnessed in the video.\u00a0<\/p>\n

In the video Young can be seen jumping up off the sofa to celebrate a touch down when the gun catches Serenity's eye.<\/p>\n

The little girl then begins to play with the firearm before she accidentally pulls the trigger and it shoots into her hand.<\/p>\n

Another woman features in the video and appears sitting on the sofa but she is disabled and reportedly cannot move.<\/p>\n

The police were told by Young that he only left his gun on the seat for a short time period while he was watching the game.<\/p>\n

Fuller has publicly shamed the other grandma who was responsible for Serenity that day and has accused her of negligence.<\/p>\n

Despite her devastation Fuller recognises the outcome could have been far worse.<\/p>\n

"It could've been worse than this," she said.<\/p>\n

She added: "They are trying to save the finger so we are just going to pray that the blood flow goes back through.<\/p>\n

"The police arrived because I called the police myself when I received the phone call and eventually the police arrived and they asked, 'Where is the baby?'"<\/p>\n

Footage of Serenity shows her in a hospital bed smiling with a bandaged hand.<\/p>\n

The traumatised grandmother said: "I don't want them over there ever again."<\/p>\n

Young was in court on Monday and is expected to return again on a separate charge for fighting with a fellow prisoner, according to WSVN.<\/p>\n

The Department of Children and Families (DCF) told WSVN: "The Department conducts investigations concerning all allegations of abuse, neglect, or abandonment. <\/p>\n

"Information regarding investigations is confidential per section 39.202, Florida Statutes."<\/p>\n
