Authorities say a federal agent accidentally shot a San Diego County sheriff’s deputy in the leg at the sheriff’s station in Lemon Grove while unloading a handgun that was seized by a joint task force Monday.
The deputy’s injury was not considered life-threatening, sheriff’s spokeswoman Jan Caldwell said.
The names of the deputy and the federal agent were not released.
The agent and other members of the unnamed task force recovered the .22 handgun while serving a search warrant in eastern San Diego County, Caldwell said.
But remember boys and girls. Only law enforcement officers are trained and qualified in tactical operations while operating tactically and stress management ninja warrior techniques and are therefore qualified to handle firearms. You aren’t. No, really. Don’t argue the point. You aren’t.

Perhaps he’s lucky it was a .22 and not a 5.7mm.

Why didn’t he shoot the drug sniffing dog while he was there? Strange.

Really, how hard is it to mind firearm safety rules??? Unless one has extremely low intelligence…
Oh, never mind.
