65-year-old Jack Haning, of Lubbock, Texas, purchased a new handgun and brought it to show his co-workers. When he got back in his vehicle he unintentionally discharged the weapon, shooting himself in the leg, hitting the femoral artery.
Haning was rushed to the hospital where he underwent surgery. He died of his injuries.
According to his obituary, he was a lifelong gun enthusiast. He leaves behind a wife and three children.
I might add that restrictions on gun ownership, i.e. gun laws, also might have prevented this. I mean at least double digit I.Q.'s should be required don't ya' think?
