Secret Service uniformed officer accidentally shoots himself while on duty
Bad luck.
[FoxNews] A U.S. Secret Service (USSS) Uniformed Division officer was injured in Washington, D.C., Saturday night after accidentally shooting himself.

The USSS told Fox News Digital that the "negligent discharge" occurred near 32nd and Fessenden streets in the northwest section of the city just before 8 p.m.

The agent, who was on duty, was handling his service weapon when the firearm discharged.

The USSS said the agent’s injuries were not life-threatening, adding that he was taken to an area hospital for treatment and evaluation.

Maybe he saw himself as a threat? 🤔

#5 This story is everywhere, but no mention of where the dude shot himself. Shot in the ass whilst holstering his weapon? Shot in the foot while cleaning/loading? Inquiring minds want to know!

#7 May have done it trying to perform a back flip on a club dance floor.

Although, I think that particular fart smeller was FBI and in Denver.

And shot a bystander.

IIRC, the SS earned quite the reputation under Obama, such as not paying up for a night of hookers&blow. Reading between the lines, I believe the party suppliers if you will were on their way to treat them the same as anyone else who doesn't pay the bill when a cool head found a non huge headline solution. IIRC.
