^ said it all. The incident you describe sounds like an inadvertent slip of barrel discipline. Although, for all we know, the officer could have been doing everything right and the bullet went through the ceiling to another floor or ricocheted or something. But knowing where your barrel is pointed at all times, especially when doing something like chambering a round, is a major thing to keep track of. Because if it is pointed in a safe place, even if something mechanical failed the resulting bullet wouldn't hit anyone.
