Description: A gun has been found in a wrapped teddy bear gift by an eight year old girl, stunning her and her foster family. The teddy bear gift was in fact given by a New York donation program, and was just one of a number of gifts donated to St. Anthony's Church in New York. The eight year old and her foster mother were both said to have been very unnerved by the incident. Foster mom, Sheeba Anderson from Harlem, has explained that she picked up a number of donated gifts from St. Anthony's Church on Dec 20. All of the gifts looked normal and there was nothing to suggest someone had placed a firearm in with one of the gift teddy bear presents. However, the family were left stunned when the firearm was found alongside the teddy bear. There was no ammunition inside the weapon when the girl found it, according to Gizmodo, although someone had previously scratched off the gun's serial number. According to the foster mom, the little girl thought the gun was a toy and started waving it around. However, to everyone's horror the gun was indeed very real.
