US man shoots himself after firing at ceiling to quiet neighbours─── 05:08 Wed, 09 Oct 2019
An Arizona man who allegedly fired his gun at his ceiling in an effort to get his neighbours to quiet down ended up shooting himself in the face, police said.
The unidentified man, located in Phoenix, initially paid his upstairs neighbors a visit after he became "upset with them" on Sunday night.
He “had banged on the door, yelling at them, trying to make contact during this argument” at about 11:20 p.m., Phoenix Police Sgt. Vince Lewis told KTAR.
The man then headed back to his apartment, still upset. He allegedly retrieved a weapon and fired several shots into the ceiling — and, somehow, shot himself in the face.
Investigators said he was transported to a hospital in an extremely critical condition, according to the Arizona Republic, which reported no-one else was injured in the incident.
