The police report is a hoot though... "On 12/18/2025 at approximately 1927 hours, I, Officer Wayde Anderson #194, and other officers were dispatched to the Hampton Inn located at 3000 Eagandale Place in the city of Eagan for a weapons call. Dispatch notes indicated that federal agents were staying in room 322, and an agent's firearm had been fired in the room. I arrived and made contact with the federal agent in question whom I identified as Bradley Shaver. Bradley wasn't injured; however, I observed a hole in his sweatshirt that I later learned was caused by the fired 9mm round." "Bradley's supervisor, Adam Autio, was contacted and informed of the incident. The firearm, as well as two magazines, 28 unfired 9mm rounds, the "backstrap", the fired casing, and fabric from Bradley's clothing were entered into evidence for safekeeping. Adam informed officers he would be picking up the firearm for processing." This part is wild... "As he was doing this, he heard a very loud bang. Initially he thought the gunshot came from somewhere else and he yelled 'shots fired!' and then told his wife he had to go and hung up. Shaver then felt heat on the left side of his body, looked down and saw the damage to his shirt and realized the shot had some from his own weapon."

@deviantollam@defcon.social I think I'll invent a switch on a gun that prevents it from going off, to help prevent this kind of thing

@deviantollam@defcon.social Being from the UK, it's a while since I've handled a pistol. That said, I'm pretty sure that doesn't happen to anybody competent to hold a gun.

@deviantollam@defcon.social Someone needs to learn to keep their booger hook off the bang switch.

@deviantollam@defcon.social The full report is terrifying and ridiculous at the same time. I initially assumed that the officer just neglected to clear the chamber before working on his weapon. Which would have been bad. But he diligently explains how the way he was holding the gun induced a malfunction preventing chambering the next round. That means he had a full magazine in the gun while working on it, pointing it at himself. WTAF?!

@deviantollam@defcon.social He was mucking around with his firearm while it was loaded, AND he was on the phone at the time with his wife. Having fired the shot, he was too stupid to realise that the bloody loud noise and kickback was from the weapon he was pointing at himself. Fnck me! He's morbidly obese, incredibly stupid, and a danger to anyone around him. Perfect ICE material. I sincerely hope his wife is busy drawing up the divorce papers. USPol #ICE

@deviantollam@defcon.social reminds me of how, during the first Trump term, Secret Service agents frequently left their handguns behind in places such as public restrooms, which could be used by children. Congressional workers and White House visitors complained about the lack of discipline and safety.
