State police are investigating the death of an Indiana man who was apparently fatally shot by his 3-year-old son after the child found a loaded gun in a southern Indiana home.

The 33-year-old Martinsville man was found dead Friday night in a Salem home by Washington County sheriff's deputies called to the scene.

State police say the man, his wife, their three children and a juvenile relative were at the home about 25 miles northwest of Louisville, Ky., doing remodeling work.
