A Clarks Green man shot himself in the hand in a Scranton business Monday morning, then fired a second accidental shot just outside the building.I'm surprised they charged him. I guess with two negligent discharges in a row, they had no choice.
Scranton police acting Capt. Glen Thomas said Michael Paolucci III, 24, was showing his handgun to a co-worker in the break room at Gress Refrigeration, 1520 N. Keyser Ave., when the shooting occurred.
Mr. Paolucci somehow fired the gun accidentally, shooting himself in the hand, then walked outside, where the gun fired a second time. Another employee then took the gun from Mr. Paolucci and put it in his car. When police arrived, they were directed to the weapon, Capt. Thomas said.
He will be charged with two counts of recklessly endangering another person and one count of discharging a firearm into an occupied space, police said.

ReplyDeleteAfter giving Joe Biden to the rest of us?
DeleteWell, I'd comment about stupidity, but simply owning a firearm is ipso facto demonstration of stupidity. Only cowardly morons own guns.
ReplyDeleteSuch a brave comment from Anonymous. Perhaps you'd like to offer some support for your assertion? Otherwise, you just sound like a cheap-seats version of E.N.
DeleteI think Anonymous is right. That doesn't mean we want to make it illegal.
DeleteOf course you do, Mikeb. Neither of you offer any reasoning to support your claim. Note how that requires a lot fewer brain cells than giving facts and logic to prove that the mere act of owning a gun shows a person to be a "cowardly moron."
