Around 10 p.m. on Beach Boulevard, Barstow, California Janice Jones a 53 year old was accidently shot by her dog.
Jones's dog knocked her 9 mm handgun off a seat, and the weapon discharged causing the bullet to pass through Jones's leg.
Not only was Jones harmed, but the bullet ended up passing through the side of the vehicle. “It could have been worse,” Rye said, a California Highway Patrol. “The bullet hit two inches from the gas tank.”
"Jones was transported to Huntington Beach Hospital via ambulance and later was transported to Irvine Medical Center," Rye said. Jim Washington, a spokesperson for Huntington Beach Hospital, confirmed Jones was treated at the hospital but gave no additional information.
It was discovered that Jones's dog, a Pomeranian was malnourished and had fresh cigarette burns on its head. Janet Ngo, one of the animal control officers said “It could have done with a little less abuse and a few more of those pork chops".
Rye said, "officers cited Jones for expired plates and the county’s district attorney’s office was considering whether to charge her in relation to the gun accident. Jones doesn’t have a permit for the gun".
