Man shot in the head at Panama City gun range
A man is in critical condition after shooting himself in the head five or six times at a Panama City gun range.
The Bay County sheriff's office says the shooting was self-inflicted but doesn't know yet if it was accidental or on purpose.
The man walked into Jays Guns and Accessories on Highway 390 near the old airport to use the range just before one o clock. First responders got the call half an hour later.Paramedic's rushed the man to Bay Medical.
The building is divided into a gun shop and a shooting range. Major Tommy Ford of the Bay County Sheriff’s Department told NewsChannel 7 no one was in the range with the man at the time."The employee of the shop was watching from the shop side separated by the wall. There were no other customers in the store and no other subjects shooting in the range area at the time."
Authorities haven't released much information about the man yet, but we do know he is in his mid twenties and has an out-of-state driver's license.
That's it ^

1995: A 39-year-old man committed suicide in Canberra, Australia by shooting himself three times with a pump action shotgun. The first shot passed through his chest and went out the other side. He reloaded and shot away his throat and part of his jaw. Breathing through the wound in his throat, he again reloaded, held the gun against his chest with his hands and operated the trigger with his toes. This shot entered the thoracic cavity and demolished the heart, killing him.[
