Coroner Discussing Gun Safety Shoots Self

BLOOMINGTON, Ind. - Monroe County Coroner David Toumey was hospitalized with a leg wound after accidentally shooting himself while trying to demonstrate gun safety.  
 
   
 
Toumey told The Herald-Times for a story published Saturday that he was demonstrating gun safety to some people at a Lake Monroe boat ramp about 11 p.m. Wednesday when he accidentally shot himself.  
 
 
He said that as he checked to make sure his weapon was unloaded, the gun discharged, and a bullet struck him in his left leg.  
 
 
"It's an unfortunate accident," Toumey said. "I've always been very, very safe."  
 
 
He was taken to Bloomington Hospital and later transferred to Methodist Hospital in Indianapolis.  
 
 
Toumey said he was scheduled to have surgery Saturday and expects to be in the hospital from three to five days.  
 
 
Monroe County Sheriff Steve Sharp said he was unable to release details of the shooting because the report had yet to be filed by the deputy assigned to the case.

I almost didnt post it because it might be taken as humor although I do see the irony in this

I can't help myself.  Lips Sealed   I tried so hard not to laugh while reading that!  I feel sorry for the guy but like Sweet said, it sounds like something you'd see on the Simpsons.
