He was injured, but treated and released the same day
LANCASTER, Ohio - A firearms instructor accidentally shot a student while teaching a gun-safety class on Saturday in Fairfield County to people seeking permits to carry concealed weapons.
Terry J. Dunlap Sr., who runs a shooting range and training center at 6995 Coonpath Rd. near Lancaster, was demonstrating a handgun when he fired a .38-caliber bullet that ricocheted off a desk and into student Michael Piemonte's right arm.
Dunlap, 73, also is a long-time Violet Township trustee who is running for re-election in November.
