HUDSON, Fla. (970 WFLA) - The trigger man shot himself in the foot. For real.
And he didn't actually pull the trigger.
Jason Trigger of Hudson was inside the Dollar General store on at 11928 U.S. 19 when a .25 caliber pistol dropped from the waistband of his pants.
The gun hit the floor and discharged. The bullet struck the 35-year old in the ankle, according to Pasco County deputies.
Trigger didn't stick around for an ambulance to arrive. But he later showed up at Bayonet Point hospital for treatment for the gunshot wound.
Trigger has multiple felony arrests, and deputies came to the hospital to charge him with being a felon in possession of a firearm.
