The officer's last words were reported as, 'it was an accident' after being hit high in the chest by the 40 caliber bullet from the Glock.
I just learned that the officer who ND'd resigned.
Safe handling needs even more focus. Everywhere. On one occasion at my shooting range last weekend I was muzzle swept by a high caliber loaded gun. It was just for an instant, but that is all it takes. Perhaps some individuals get so comfortable with weapons that they are no longer vigilant.
