He was afraid of crime in the neighborhood and wanted his wife to become familiar with a gun......

A Michigan man was concerned that crime was increasing in his neighborhood. He was getting ready to show his wife how to work a handgun. As he was unloading the gun he unintentionally fired it, shooting his wife in the leg. She was taken to the hospital with a "non-life-threatening injury."
Family members said the man had kept guns in his home for many years for protection. But this was the first time he had shot anyone.
Ohh shoot.
