Cop Accidentally Shoots Himself in Indiana Gun Store
Hoping to secure Republican nomination in Fayette County sheriff race
CONNERSVILLE, Ind. – Shooting himself in the leg is not the way Connersville Police Chief David Counceller planned to promote his candidacy for Fayette County sheriff.
Counceller's 40-caliber Glock handgun accidentally discharged Saturday afternoon while he was at Wullf's Gun Shop. Counceller, who was off-duty at the time, said he'd been examining a handgun similar to the one he carries.

Technically, it's Wulff's gun shop. I've been there many a time, in my youth.
Counceller's 40-caliber Glock handgun accidentally was negligently discharged . . .
Much better.
