Rule, uh, #5
If you’re not going to follow the four rules of gun safety, I’ll suggest a rule #5: Don’t disregard rules one through four with an illegal weapon:
A Senseney Circle woman reported to police Tuesday that around 6:50 p.m., her husband accidentally shot himself in the foot, according to a report by Clarksville Police Department Detective Eric Green Jr. She said while getting the gun out of the closet, it accidentally went off.
The gun, a short-barrel shotgun, was seized because it is a prohibited weapon, according to the report.
