This is not the story of the dreadlocked F.B.I instructor that shot his foot in front of a class of kids.

I couldn’t find a pic of him but every pic I found of people with the last name Lamar were black (exception Heddy Lamar). This story was also reported in South Africa and no pics online so that leads me to believe it was black.

I am amazed at how many people don't know to keep their fingers off the trigger of a Glock.

Gun Teacher Accidentally Shoots Himself

NEW BEDFORD, MA (AP) -- A firearms instructor in southern Massachusetts has been assigned to other duties after his gun accidentally went off while he was teaching a class on weapons safety.

Officials say the Glock handgun discharged while Maj. Donald Lamar was demonstrating to Bristol County deputy sheriffs how to safely holster the weapon.

The bullet ripped a hole in Lamar's pants but missed his leg and foot.

Sheriff Thomas Hodgson says the officer made a ``[color="Red"]gross error in judgment'' by not emptying the weapon before the class last week.

Lamar, a certified firearms instructor since 2005, was transferred to another division and will not carry a firearm while the incident is being investigated.
