A Nebraska woman suffered a minor wound from a shotgun pellet on Saturday when a dog recklessly discharged the weapon from inside of a camper truck parked in a nearby convenience store parking lot, KNOP reports. The dog’s owner had parked in front of the Short Stop on Avenue I in Scottsbluff at approximately noon and was standing outside the passenger door when the dog stepped on the loaded shotgun, blasting a hole in the side of the camper and striking a woman who was sitting in a vehicle waiting for the traffic light at the adjacent intersection of Ave I and 20th.
While further details on the woman’s injury were scant, cops initially believed they were responding to a BB gun wound based on the woman’s 911 call, so that should tell you she probably was not seriously hurt. It’s not clear what happened to the dog or its owner after the shooting.
