“An off-duty northern Kentucky police officer was caught on camera accidentally shooting himself in an elevator in Cincinnati, Ohio, on Saturday night.

Surveillance video shows Officer Darryl Jouett of Erlanger, Ky., talking with a woman in a parking garage elevator while holding a box and briefly pulling a gun out of his pocket and glancing at it.

While fumbling to holster the weapon, it accidentally fires near his abdomen and Jouett falls to his knees for several moments before stumbling out of the elevator and clutching a wall.

Jouett had just finished dinner with his wife when the shooting occurred, Erlanger Police Sgt. Jon Sterling told the Daily News.”* The Young Turks hosts Cenk Uygur and John Iadarola break it down.
