MARCH 18--The Indiana man who accidentally shot himself in the penis and scrotum has been charged with carrying a handgun without a license, according to court records.
Mark Anthony Jones, 46, is facing a Class-A misdemeanor weapons charge in connection with the February 28 incident in Marion. A decision to charge Jones (seen at right) was made this month by the Grant County Prosecutor?s Office after police forwarded the case for review.
Jones, who lives in Marion, is the subject of an active arrest warrant filed in Marion City Court.
According to police, Jones suffered an ?accidental self-inflicted gunshot injury? while walking on a Marion street. During a hospital interview, Jones told cops that he had a Hi-Point 9mm handgun tucked in his waistband when the weapon ?began to slip.?
The weapon was not in a holster.
When, Jones said, he ?reached down to adjust? the gun, the firearm discharged. ?The bullet entered just above his penis and exited his scrotum,? investigators reported. (1 page)

Oh come on! You know you wanted to say that!0 -
Had a patient once with the same injury, only it was a .22 not a 9mm. Entered at the base of his penis, exited on the left side of his groin and reentered his left thigh. 0 -
So now he has a ported barrel LOL 0 -
No more flaming of the High Point guns!!! That was a great shot!! 0 -
I Really, Really hate it - when I shoot myself in the "penis and scrotum. "
But if I did ,I'd hope it would be with a 9mm, not the venerable .40 cal round.0
