In a motor home in Barstow, California around 10pm, Janice Jones, 53, was shot in the right leg by her dog, Tombo. The dog knocked the gun off of the seat, and as it hit the floor, it discharged.
Jones was in her trailer eating pork chops, and Tombo knocked the 9 mm hand gun off of the seat by her. Jones hadn't seen or realized the gun knock off of the seat until it was too late.
Jones was taken to Huntington Beach hospital, and Tombo was placed in the care of the Huntington beach animal control officers. The control officer's found fresh cigarette burns on the dogs forehead and seemed to be malnourished.
"It could've done with a little less abuse and a few more of those pork chops." says Janet Ngo, one of the animal control officers. They are looking into changing Jones for animal abuse.
The county's district attorneys office is debating on whether to charge Jones for the gun accident. She doesn't have a license for her gun.
