Mohave County Sheriff's officials released a foreboding video Tuesday of a 9-year-old girl at an Arizona shooting range just moments before she accidentally shot her instructor.
Charles Vacca, 39, died Monday night after he was shot in the head with a 9 mm Uzi by the girl he was teaching at an outdoor range in Dolan Springs, Ariz.
In the video, which does not show the instructor being shot, Vacca shows the young girl how to properly stand while shooting. He steadies her arms while she fires successfully in single-shot mode and congratulates her.
Vacca then adjusts the gun and says "Alright, full auto." The gun recoils and drifts to the left towards the instructor as a spray of bullets is released. The video then cuts off.
An Arizona shooting instructor has died after being accidentally shot in the head by a 9-year-old student Monday morning.
Mohave County Sheriff's officials told the Associated Press that the 39-year-old shooting instructor was injured at about 10 a.m. at an outdoor range in Dolan Springs, Ariz. He was then airlifted to a medical center in Las Vegas, where he died later that night.
Sheriff Jim McCabe told the Las Vegas Review-Journal that the girl, who was vacationing from New Jersey with her parents, had safely fired a 9 mm Uzi several times in the “single-shot” mode.
The firearm was put into "fully automatic" mode the next time she fired, McCabe said, with the instructor, identified as Charles Vacca, standing to her left. The weapon recoiled and she lost control of the Uzi while firing an undetermined number of rounds. Vacca suffered at least one gunshot to the head.
"The guy just dropped,” McCabe told the Review-Journal.
No charges would be filed, the sheriff said.

The parents should be charges. This is child abuse.
The girl is ruined for life.
