Washington Man Shoots Himself In The Butt, Blames It on Stranger
A Washington man faces felony charges after shooting himself in the butt at a gas station on Nov. 3. Police caught up with the victim/suspect at a local hospital where he promptly blamed the shooting on a stranger, but authorities were already the wiser.
Officers responded to a Shell gas station in Kent around 3:15 p.m. on Sunday after reports of a man shooting himself and then fleeing the scene. Speaking with the Kent Police Department, a gas station clerk explained that the man had stopped in to gas up and was browsing items on the shelves inside the convenience store when a gun fell from his pants.
