EMMETT, Idaho -- An Emmett police officer whose gun was involved in an accidental shooting in her home that injured three people has been placed on administrative leave.

Police Chief Steve Nebeker says Detective Sgt. Kim Judy was placed on leave Wednesday pending the results of an internal investigation into the Aug. 6 shooting.

Nebeker has said the shooting injured Judy's roommate, 20-year-old Whisper Rowden, and two of Rowden's children.

Investigators say Rowden's 3-year-old son somehow got a hold of Judy's 9mm service weapon and fired one shot that went through the boy's leg, through the hand of a 2-year-old and into Rowden's arm.
