Booger Hook off the Bang Switch

Someone not being careful?

  • Chicago police said no one was injured when an officer's gun unintentionally went off in a police station in the Near West Side Tuesday morning.

    CPD said that at about 11:40 a.m., an on-duty officer was handling a firearm at the 12th District station in the 1400 block of South Blue Island Avenue when the gun went off.

    The officer did not mean to fire his gun. No one was struck and no injuries were reported, CPD said.

Locker Room? 

Hallway by the gun lockers outside of lock-up? (does 012 even have a lock-up?)

Clothing snag? 

And how is Channel 2 getting this info?

I'll guess a bathroom, where he was talking to himself in the mirror, saying, "You talking to me? You must be talking to me. Ain't no one else here." Then POW!

I hope the officer had his hearing protection on. Proper training needed, probably was a supervisor.

Did the officer at least not fart?

Can't blame it on the P320 anymore. I guess it's time to claim that the Glock or M&P "just went off by itself".

Every one of those big divots in the floor and walls of the 12th District Station has a valuable lesson to tell. Wowie! And the main-stream news heard about it off of X. Most likely Spot News or Chicago-Scanner when they heard the call for an ET come out.

I came on the job in 86. The duty weapon was a six shot revolver but you could also carry a single action 45 as a secondary weapon. Many of the shitter stalls in the Second District had bullet holes in the door from the guys accidently shooting these guns while they were playing with them while they were taking a dump. I always wondered if the women were shooting holes in the stall doors from playing with THEIR guns...

Yeah, who thought it was necessary or took it upon themselves to notify the media? No reason for that unless the cop is a known goof (always quite possible) and this is a way to further embarrass him or her.

I hope he had that mohawk haircut as well. On the other hand, I hope he wasn't infatuated with Jodie Foster to the point of wanting to shoot the president.

Refer back to earlier fop post on leaks. That unit must have some clout because they keep churning out leaks and leadership doesn’t have spine to address it.

It came over the scanners. It could have all been handled by phone and there would have been a far less chance of it ever seeing the light of day.

The 4 universal rules of gun safety are:

#1: Treat all guns as if they are always loaded.

#2: Never let the muzzle point at anything that you are not willing to destroy.

#3: Keep your finger off the trigger until your sights are on target and you have made the decision to shoot.

#4: Be sure of your target and what is behind it.

Before it was re-modeled a few years ago, in the office of a well known Bureau ( not in Chicago) every Wall/ Ceiling hole resulting from an AD/ ND had the date of the incident and the initials of the shooter painted next to it.

I was in the locker room at 1850 Washington when the quick draw kid started practicing. I called a time out and left for the day. I came into work the next morning and the the hole in the locker and heard quick draw had a through and through to the bicep. Downtown Ernie Brown came into the office saying 3 guys that were present for the discharge put in for 3 days medical traumatic experience leave. Lmao good times at Housing West765

Scienceterrifically speaking, no turd can emerge without a tad bit of fart poofing, especially when launching of turd is a sudden startling bang.

Perhaps a bit of sound suppresion effect by the tight bulge boxer/briefs?

To elaborate on 3 Oct/ 1800: The Boss’s Admin would cut a 8 x 10 inch poster board stencil for the Date and the Shooter. And the Boss would spray paint it on the wall/ ceiling. In Blood Red.
