Attempted Domestic Murder - Offender Killed by Police

I thought this kind of thing only happened on TV, but we've seen a couple similar stories lately.

A Seguin woman staying with her parents in New Braunfels owes her life to a malfunctioning gun. 

New Braunfels Police officers shot Glenn Shane Godden to death when he attempted to kidnap and then to shoot his ex-wife

What is it with these malfunctioning guns? Does this happen to all gun owners from time to time?
