MANCHESTER, N.H.—Police in New Hampshire say a 23-year-old Manchester man had to be hospitalized after accidentally shooting himself in the leg with a friend's gun shortly after attending a gun show.
Manchester police Lt. James Soucy said Michael Hunter and 23-year-old Andrew Shelley each bought two guns at a show in Manchester on Saturday.
Police said the men drove to Shelley's apartment and that Hunter shot himself with Shelley's .40-caliber handgun outside of the car while trying to locate the gun's safety.
Officials said he was listed in fair condition after being taken to a hospital.
