KOKOMO, Ind. -- Police said a Kokomo man accidentally shot himself in the genitals as he robbed a convenience store early Tuesday. Kokomo police said they were called to a Village Pantry store at 100 N. Ohio St. at about 4:20 a.m. after a clerk at the store called them. The female clerk told police that a man came into the store with a semiautomatic handgun, grabbed her hair and demanded cash and cigarettes before handing her a white cloth bag. The clerk said that as she retrieved the cigarettes she heard a gunshot and turned to confront the man, who yelled that he had shot himself. "The bullet traveled through his right testicle ... and then into the bottom part of his leg," Kokomo police Lt. Don Whitehead said. In-store surveillance cameras showed that Kosch shot himself as he placed the gun into the waistband of his pants, police said. Shortly after the robbery, dispatchers got a call from someone in a home -- located several blocks away from the store -- about a man who was shot. When officers arrived, they found Kosch. The home is his grandmother's, police said. "He said he had been shot (and) someone was trying to rob him," said the grandmother, whom 6News didn't name. "In the meantime, I found out that he was trying to rob somebody else." Kosch was taken to a hospital for treatment. Officers said that while at the home they found the bag of money that was taken from the convenience store and clothes seen on the robber in the surveillance tape. 1876: hey 2417, what are you in for.... 2417: shootin' my nuts off.... 1876: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members bholder Posted January 16, 2008 Members Share Posted January 16, 2008 Well, he's halfway to removing himself from the gene pool. I think he's headed in the right direction, just didn't complete the job. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members monark Posted January 16, 2008 Members Share Posted January 16, 2008 Well Bonoman used to do the DAOTDs, but I don't think he's here as much anymore... I did hear about this on the radio this morning though. Definitely qualifies for DAOTD for sure! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
