SEATTLE — A man shot himself in the forearm accidentally early Sunday morning in Capitol Hill, according to the Seattle Police Department (SPD).
Just after midnight, the man was attempting to unload a handgun when it inadvertently went off and shot ‘through-and-through’ his forearm and hit a wall, SPD said.
Nearby witnesses called 911 and applied pressure to the wound before medics arrived.
No other injuries were reported and no charges have currently been filed.
