Well, I...certainly hope it was an accident.
A man accidentally shot himself in the testicles at Lowe's Home Improvement store in Lynnwood Sunday afternoon, police said.
Lynwood Police. How may we help you?
Some guy did...what?
The man's handgun, which was in the waistband of his pants, went off at about 12:30 p.m. -- an apparent "accidental discharge," according to Shannon Sessions, a Lynnwood police spokeswoman. "It made a loud noise and scared a lot of people in the store," Sessions said. "I believe he shot himself in the testicles and he also had some injuries to his leg and foot. He was obviously in shock."
BANG!
What the hell was that?
AAAAAAAHHHHH! AAAAAAHHHHHH! I shot myself in the testicles!
Oh, my. It appears that someone has shot themself in the testicles...
Nobody else was hurt and no one appeared to be with the man, she said.
Ummmmm...yeah. I'm outta here, man. Lemme know how you make out.
Police and fire responded, and the man was rushed to Harborview Medical Center in Seattle before police had a chance to interview him extensively.
Excuse me, sir. Like to ask you some questions?
AAAAAHHH! AAAAAAHHHH!
Maybe later...
Sessions had no further details about the man.
We don't think he'll be too hard to find though.
Lynnwood police are continuing to investigate but "at this point it does look like it's accidental," Sessions said.
That just a hunch, Muldoon?
A manager at Lowe's said store personnel are not commenting on the incident.
I mean...whadda ya want us to say?| When this guy's friends stop laughing they might want to introduce him to the idea of a holster ... |
| While I know nothing about guns, it seems to me that walking around with one half-cocked and a round in the chamber is a bad idea. |
Half cocked? Interesting choice of words...
That's just nuts.
The long and the short of it ... |
