Modern quality pistols don't fire when dropped.

They can if you try to catch it and get a booger hook inside the trigger guard.

I don't know if that's what happened, but it is the most likely scenario.

That's what makes me think the event as reported is inaccurate. Golly, who would have thought? This makes it sound like the evil and dangerous gun was the problem, when in reality it was the dingbat owner.

Beaumont Police tells 12News that the woman who accidentally fired her gun at the Christus Outpatient Pavilion on Monday night will not face charges.

Police say that the shooting was accidental, and the woman broke no laws by bringing the weapon into the outpatient center. According to police, the woman only broke hospital policy.
