At Least it Was Just My Phone

My dad sent me this story via FoxNews today. At least I only have my cell phone in my pocket.

CENTERVILLE, Utah — The man escaped with a few cuts to his arm, but the toilet made out much worse.

Police say a man's gun fell out of its holster while he pulled up his pants after using the bathroom at a Carl's Jr. restaurant Tuesday. The gun fired when it hit the floor and shattered the commode.

A few shards of porcelain cut the man's arm, and a woman in an adjacent restroom who was frightened by the noise reported she was having chest pain. Both people were checked at the scene and released.

Police say they confiscated the 26-year-old man's firearm while they review the incident. The man had a concealed weapons permit. No charges are being filed.

  1. well now, that would be a shock! can you imagine. although, what in heaven's name does anyone need a LOADED gun in their pocket with no safety features on it? i'd say he's dang lucky he didn't kill someone or himself!
