Woman shoots herself without a gun

We can’t blame guns for all the shootings in the world, because a Pennsylvania woman was apparently wounded by a bullet that exploded in her purse. The unidentified shopper in a Williamsport Lowe’s home improvement store was shot in the leg by a bullet even though she wasn’t carrying a firearm, according to the Sun Gazette. “Something must have hit the primer of one of the bullets,” a local police officer said. The 56-year-old woman was treated for her injuries at a hospital and discharged. Stories about people shooting themselves are old hat such as a man who blasted his crotch. But this is a new twist on a favourite: You hear of people who handle guns improperly and end up worse for wear. The lesson to be gleaned from this bizarre tale is clear: You might also want to consider keeping any random ammunition you own out of your handbag.
