The girl was in good condition after being taken to Comer Children’s Hospital for treatment of an ankle injury.
The girl was in a home in the 6400 block of South Artesian Avenue when she jumped on a bed about 12:20 a.m. The gun, hidden between mattresses, discharged and a bullet hit the girl.
There was no immediate information about charges.
UPDATE:
Charges have been filed after a 4-year-old girl was injured early Saturday morning when a gun hidden between mattresses in a Marquette Park neighborhood home discharged as she was jumping on the bed.
Jarquise Upton, 21 of the 6400 block of South Artesian Avenue, was charged with one count of unlawful use of a weapon by a felon, one count of misdemeanor possession of ammunition and one count of misdemeanor theft of lost or mislaid property.
Upton, who is the boyfriend of the victim's mother, will appear in bond court
