Gun owners should be very careful when carrying their weapons around. There have been instances of accidental firing with fatal consequences.
American rapper 2 Low was recently being interviewed live on the YouTube podcast “One on One with Mike D” to discuss his career and plans for the future. A video of the interview posted on X on 5 January showed the 46-year-old musician reaching inside the left pocket of his pants when a shot rang out.
Reports say he accidentally fired his gun and shot himself in the leg. No one else in the studio was injured.
Meanwhile, a fast-food restaurant in Melbourne, Australia was almost gutted by fire early on Christmas Day.
Victoria state police on Thursday released a video of the incident which is going viral on social media.
The footage taken by a CCTV camera showed two persons in dark hoodies carrying a container filled with flammable liquid to the front of the store.
One of them lit the fluid. In an instant, the would-be arsonist was engulfed in flames and he hurriedly removed his burning trousers before running off bare-cheeked with his apparently unharmed accomplice.
Police asked the public to help identify the suspected arsonists.
