A toddler in Florida has shot their mother dead while she was on a conference Zoom call.

US Police say Shamaya Lynn was struck in the head on Wednesday.

The 21 year-old could be seen falling backwards while on the work-related call.

One of the call's participants phoned police, stating they saw a toddler in the background of the screen & then a loud noise, just as Ms. Lynn fell backward.

The gun belonged to the father of the victim's two young children.

Officers & paramedics attended the scene, but Ms. Lynn was found with a fatal gunshot to the head.

In a Facebook post, police stated "Investigators determined that the injury was caused by a toddler who found a loaded handgun, which was left unsecured by an adult in the apartment."

Altamonte Springs Police Department noted "the investigation is ongoing and detectives are working closely with the Seminole County State Attorney’s Office concerning any charges which may be appropriate for the owner of the firearm."
