Yeah, you got that right, he'll never do that again...IMPERIAL, Mo. | An eastern Missouri man is dead after accidentally shooting himself while teaching firearms safety to his girlfriend.
KSDK-TV reports that 40-year-old James Looney of Imperial died of a gunshot wound to the head.
The shooting happened Friday. Jefferson County Sheriff Glenn Boyer told the station that according to witnesses, Looney was demonstrating how to use the different safety mechanisms on several guns. Witnesses told authorities that Looney would put the guns to his head, ask his girlfriend if she thought the gun would go off, then pull the trigger.
The safety mechanisms worked for the first two guns. But the third gun fired. Looney died Saturday at a hospital.
