A 20-year-old Detroit man is recovering after shooting himself with a gun he apparently found in a heat vent outdoors on the city's west side.
The shooting took place about 7:20 p.m. Sunday on the 20000 block of Griggs, said Jennifer Watson, a Detroit Police Department spokeswoman. That's south of Eight Mile and west of Wyoming.
Witnesses told police that after finding a handgun in a heat vent in the area, the man was playing with the gun when it went off and shot him.
After being transported to an area hospital, the man was in temporary serious condition at last report.
Police are investigating.

The headline is more accurate than the article for a change. It's as if somebody who knew how guns work wrote the headline.
The article reconstructed a negligent discharge in a passive way 'the gun went off'.
The headline correctly says 'he shot himself'. |

| He probably shot himself with his own gun and his finding it is a cover for illegal possession of a firearm. |

TO REMEMBER |
| Gentlemen may cry, 'peace, peace'—but there is no peace. The war is actually begun! Is life so precious, or peace so dear, as to be purchased at the price of chains and slavery? Forbid it, Almighty God! I know not what course others may take, but as for me, give me liberty, or give me death! — Patrick Henry to the Virginia Convention on March 23, 1775. |
