HOUSTON - A car burglary suspect was fatally shot when an officer’s weapon just went off all by itself for no reason at all.

Fixed it for you

Those darn guns that have a mind of their own, "the gun did it" ....

An officer was attempting to break in the window of the vehicle when his weapon fired and fatally struck the suspect.

"Negligent" discharge, is probably the proper term, rather than "accidental" discharge probably, but details are skimpy ....

If I had a hammer, I'd hammer in the morning, I'd hammer in the evening ... all o....

If this shooting, accident or not, had got blood and gore all over my car's interior, you better believe somebody would be getting a bill for the clean-up/restoration of the vehicle's interior. Did I mention the window?

I used to really frequent that mall too.

"There are other means by which to breach a window — an asp baton, a flashlight, ceramic pellets," Flory said. "Using a handgun (to break a car window), especially with your finger on the trigger, is not normal."

Perhaps someone on here can enlighten me....How big are these ceramic pellets and how are they deployed?
