How does this crap happen? Do people not check their weapons after shooting?
3 injured after shotgun accidentally fires at N.C. gun show
(CNN) -- A 12-gauge shotgun loaded with bird shot accidentally discharged Saturday when its owner opened its case at a gun show at the North Carolina State Fairgrounds, injuring a retired sheriff's deputy and two other persons, police said.
The gun owner, a 36-year-old man from Wilmington, North Carolina, was carrying the weapon through security at the show entrance and was unfastening the case on a table, authorities said. The owner planned to sell the shotgun at the show.
The deputy suffered a slight injury to his hand and was treated and released at a local hospital, said Joel Keith, chief of police of the North Carolina State Fair.
A 54-year-old woman from Benson, North Carolina, was being treated a wound to her right torso at a local hospital, and a 50-year-old man from Durham, North Carolina, was treated for an injured left hand, Keith told reporters.
"I want to emphasize that this is an accident," Keith said.
