Ohio instructor shoots student in gun-safety class
Published August 13, 2013

Associated Press
LANCASTER, Ohio – Police say an instructor of a gun-safety class in central Ohio accidentally shot a student during the weekend.

The Columbus Dispatch reports 73-year-old Terry J. Dunlap Sr. was demonstrating a hand gun on Saturday at a training facility when he fired a bullet that bounced off a desk and into the right arm of Michael Piemonte.

The 26-year-old student says the .38-caliber bullet hit him between his elbow and armpit. He says many of the students in the class were nurses who helped stabilize him before he was transported to a Columbus hospital.

Piemonte tells the newspaper it appears that Dunlap did not know that the gun was loaded. Dunlap did not immediately respond to requests for comment.

A police report lists the incident as an accidental shooting.

Didn't know the gun was loaded. Shit man, the first thing you do with any weapon is clear it. Sheez.

It's reverse psychology. I bet the class learned the lesson.

Not only that but you still treat every weapon as if it were loaded whether you cleared it or not. What a dumbass!

I'd say the guy has good teaching skills. Take the biggest, baddest, most out of control student and shoot him, the rest will see that, comply and settle down, and maybe learn something....or maybe that's prison. Hell, I'm sure that works well in the classroom, too.

When in doubt pull the trigger to see if its clear. Two loudest noises you'll ever hear. Bang when expecting a click and click when expecting a bang

Sorry, but 73 years old is a little TOO OLD to be a gun safety instructor.
