Just a guess on my part, but I find it hard to believe any weapon would fire by just lying it down unless there was a homicidal tic hiding on the shooting bench. I could see a weapon like the Jennings going off it were dropped, the slide slamming closed on a loaded magazine and the trigger malfunctioned, unloading the remaining three rounds. Glad the three people are not dead and once again, another reason not to go to a crowded range with people whom you have no idea of their training or skill level, never mind their safety-mindedness. If I can't have three or more lanes between me and a shooter I don't know, I ain't shootin'. I can wait or I can come back another time.

Not that three lanes will guarantee my safety if there is an outburst of lunacy, but it sure helps with increasing the odds.
