So, accidental (or negligent) discharge of the shotgun and hit the shoulder of the bi-polar guy who’s off his meds. There are no winners in this situation. I hope Mr. Adams has a full and speedy recovery.
But it’s another example of a lesson I learned in my younger years: If you’re at home sleeping in the middle of the night instead of being out and about, your chances of getting in trouble are greatly diminished.
I like how the shotgun just “went off” when the cop pumped it “to get the man to follow commands”.
Maybe being aware of where you’re pointing that thing would be a good idea.
