DRAPER Shrapnel from a bullet wounded a man's foot after he accidentally fired a gun inside his office Wednesday morning, police said.
Around 11:30 a.m., two men were looking at a handgun inside an office building at 15 W. Scenic Pointe Drive (14380 South), said Draper police Sgt. Scott Peck.
"They thought it was unloaded," said Draper police Sgt. Scott Peck. "One of them pulled the trigger."
The bullet hit the ground and some shrapnel cut a 28-year-old man's foot. "He just needed a Band-Aid," Peck said. Police said the man had a concealed weapons permit for the handgun.
