She wasn't killed but your point stands: The headline, while obviously being clickbaity and maybe even trying to be funny hides the underlying problem:

Somehow, the dog had triggered the shotgun – which had a live round chambered – to fire, damaging the vehicle and striking a female passerby.

[...]

It is illegal in Nebraska to drive with a loaded shotgun in your vehicle.

Every law follows a necessitating incident. Why are people so stupid? I have a shotgun, and while it is loaded, I never had an inclination to keep it chambered for any reason.
