Sheriff’s officials in Loudoun County, Va., said a man there accidentally shot a bullet into his neighbor’s home on Friday while he was “practicing trigger pulls,” according to the Loudoun Times.
The newspaper reported that Bryan K. Johnson, 47, of South Riding, Va., was being charged with “reckless handling of a firearm,” after the incident with the .38 revolver.
According to the Times, the sheriff’s office stated that Johnson said the incident occurred because he was “practicing trigger pulls.” The Times also reported that Johnson reportedly said he thought all of the rounds from his gun had been cleared during an earlier cleaning.
Fortunately, no one was injured.
You just know that Johnson didn’t practice this hard for a midterm test.
I have $10 that says at some time during his questioning he uttered the sentence, “I didn’t know it was loaded.” These clowns are FAMOUS for it.
The shooter was charged with a crime? That’s tyranny!
Wouldn’t a Viagra prescription have been cheaper?
Well, I’ll give him credit for not killing himself while cleaning it.
And BTW, unless wiping it off is the same as cleaning there’s no way in the world he actually “cleaned” it and didn’t notice there was a cartridge in the chamber.
Premature discharge, Yer Honor…Hey, I was only just practissin’…
Hell, I was just fingerin’ myself…what’s a feller to do on a Friday night. Alone. Bored. Drinking JD with my BFF. ?? We’re on a journey…
