“Our priority is safety.” Accidental gun discharge at Vigo County Public Library

[cheyanne]

6. So it would be more accurate to say that so-and-so fired a gun?

A retired East St. Louis police captain died unexpectedly Wednesday afternoon after a small handgun he was carrying inside of a small satchel discharged, striking him in the head. (should read: when he fired a small handgun he was carrying inside of a small stachel)

Bayron E. Cuellar of Kansas City was handling a gun while riding in a vehicle when the gun fired. (should read . . .fired a gun while riding in a vehicle . . .)

When officers arrived, they learned a man getting ready to depart the store was carrying a gun in his waistband. Police say the gun began to fall to the floor and the man tried to grab it, causing it to discharge. (should read: man fired a gun as it fell from his waistband.)

And the times that it's reported that while cleaning, a gun accidently discharged, should read "while cleaning , he fired the gun".
