Ohio Police Chief Shoots Himself While Teaching Daughter Gun Safety
Saturday, November 29, 2008
MONROE, Ohio — Police in southwestern Ohio say a police chief mistakenly shot himself in the thigh after giving his daughter a gun safety lesson.
A police report says 54-year-old Middletown police Chief Greg Schwarber was preparing to clean his Glock .45-caliber pistol on Friday and didn't realize the gun was still loaded.
The report written by officers from neighboring Monroe says the bullet entered Schwarber's leg just above the knee.
When officers arrived, they found the chief lying on the floor with a towel covering his leg. Schwarber was taken to a hospital for treatment.
The hospital had no record of Schwarber being treated or admitted. A home phone number for him couldn't be found

I sure hope he didn't, or isn't planning on teaching her how to drive too!
And let's hope his wife takes care of "the talk"!
hale-bopp, that was bad...naughty, naughty.
Logjam....ooooh....
Just proves that accidents do happen. Bet he doesn't live this down too quickly.
Come on, Beejay, at least I didn't write what I was really thinking! That joke was just so wrong!
What's ironic is that I saw this story right after my son and I got back from the shooting range on 6 Mile.
At least he has a nice gun to shoot himself with, Gluck .45, good thing he didn't blow his leg off!
SER: Go thing he wasn't pointing any higher either.
that joke was too right, hale-bopp!
Logjam...you got that right, that would have made him say "Oh Shit"...
