Intoxicated conceal-carry gun owner shot and critically wounded a woman
during Benghazi movie in WA

Renton police say the suspect, who appeared intoxicated, went to the
showing of "13 Hours." Police say the man walked inside the theater with
a gun and "accidentally" discharged his weapon, hitting a woman in the
theater.

The woman has been upgraded from critical to serious condition. The man
took off, but his dad did the right thing:

Police believe the suspect initially left the scene on Thursday evening
right after the shooting, but the man's father called 911 a short time
later to turn him in. The 29-year-old surrendered to police at his
family's home in Newcastle.

The suspect told detectives the shooting was an accident that took place
when he dropped his gun inside the theater. The man reportedly said the
gun discharged when it fell to the ground. He also said he'd been
drinking before the shooting took place.

That's one of the reasons Massachusetts does "drop tests" on handguns
as part of the compliance inspection process.



Do drunks do the test?
