Lawful Missouri Gun Owner Shoots Someone and Gets Away with It

A Farmington auto dealership employee was accidentally shot in the leg just after noon Thursday.
According to a spokesman of the dealership and police, a customer had pulled his truck into a service bay. A company employee was at the driver's door collecting information off the vehicle. The driver of the truck, knowing he had a loaded rifle inside, went to the passenger side and was going to remove and unload the firearm.
The rifle was accidentally discharged, the bullet traveling through the seat and hitting the worker in the leg.
It was reported that the gun was a .308 caliber rifle.

Farmington Police Chief Rick Baker said the man holding the rifle at the time of the incident volunteered to be checked for any alcohol or chemical impairment, and was questioned at length. The chief said there was no sign of drug or alcohol use, and no indication of any malicious intent ... it appeared to be solely an accidental shooting.
