LEHIGH ACRES, Fla., Feb. 5 (UPI) -- Authorities in Florida said a man
was hospitalized with burn wounds after accidentally shooting himself in
the groin with a flare gun.

The Lee County Sheriff's Office said deputies responded to a medical
assistance call Sunday in Lehigh Acres and arrived to find Jorge Perez,
23, with multiple burns and lacerations on his genital region, WZVN-TV,
Fort Myers, reported Tuesday.

Perez told deputies he had loaded the flare gun and set it down Sunday.
He later picked it up and, forgetting he had loaded it, fired it at the
ground.

The man said the flare bounced off the floor and struck him in the genitals.
