An 18-year-old man was shot and wounded in the leg when he tried to get his neighbor to sign some documents for verification of volunteer hours as part of his National Honor Society requirements at 10:30 p.m. on April 5.
The younger man reported that while at his 43-year-old neighbor's house, the older man offered to show the younger man his new pistol.
Reports indicate the younger man smelled alcohol on the breath of his neighbor. He said he became worried when the man loaded the pistol.
The older man told police he was trying to remove a round from the chamber of the pistol when he accidentally discharged the firearm into the thigh of his young friend.
After he was shot, the18-year-old called his father and told him, "Dad come over, I've been shot," according to the police report. The older man was given a summons for reckless endangerment and released at the scene.
Goosey's Gabbings... I'm not sure why this guy is in so much trouble. I mean, he had a "I shoot honor students" bumper sticker.....
