So, if she was trying to make a point about why it’s so dangerous to use shotguns while you’re trying to make a point, then I would say she succeeded.
According to The Saginaw News, a woman in Fremont Township accidentally shot herself in the face Monday morning while “trying to make a point” during a family dispute.
The 51-year-old woman told police that she slammed the butt end of the shotgun on the floor in an effort to “make a point.” The gun went off, and the woman was shot in the face.
Police haven’t closed the case and are still investigating to make sure everything went down the way the woman said it did. Meanwhile, the woman is expected to recover after she was transported by helicopter to a hospital in Saginaw.
Of course, she’ll forever have to answer the question, “My God, what happened to your face?” Hopefully, she learned her lesson and will remember to not use an actual shotgun while she demonstrates how the gun went off and put a hole in her face.
