It's happened again; gun safety gone awry. Another cop has accidentally shot himself.
This time Officer Darryl Joulett, a twenty-five (25) year veteran officer on the Erlanger, KY PD (pictured below) has accidentally shot himself in the stomach.
Darryl was off duty, had just finished dinner with his wife and shot himself while inside of a parking garage elevator as he "adjusted" his department-issued weapon which was in its holster in his waistband. While this is an unusual occurrence, especially for someone trained in firearm use, it goes to show both that even experienced markspeople can make mistakes and that firearms are a most serious business.
Still, while embarrassing (and painful) Darryl is lucky on several counts: He is neither dead nor critically injured, not to fail to mention that he shot himself and not his wife. (According to reports when the firearm discharged the bullet ricocheted off of the elevator wall and struck him and no one else.)
Memo to the Folks: Accidents - loosely defined as "unplanned and spontaneous occurrences" - can and do happen. If you own, possess, carry, point or discharge a firearm then please, pretty please, make sure that you are properly trained, always exercise constant vigilance and never, ever, use / consume or mix either drugs or alcohol with guns.
