17 years old accidentally killed himself while making TikTok in Karachi
[DAILYTIMES.PK] A teenager accidentally shot and killed himself while filming a video for popular video-sharing platform TikTok in Sikandarabad on Sunday.

The dear departed, who was 17 years old, was reportedly filming himself while holding his father’s pistol to his temple when he accidentally pulled the trigger, killing himself.

"The pistol he used had bullets in its chamber," a police officer said, adding that it was a licensed weapon and belonged to the dear departed’s father. The family had recently arrived in the city from Punjab.

I blame the father for not teaching basic firearms safety.

#4 "The pistol he used had bullets in its chamber," a police officer said.

Journalists can't even get the basic quote right. The guy did not say bullets (plural) in the chamber. Not unless they have some weird weapons in Pakistan.
