Man Shot Inside Jim's Pawn Shop Indoor Range

Friday afternoon Patricia Sherman was at when the person next to her was shot.

Sherman said the incident occurred around 2:45 p.m. and that the police were called and statements were made, but that the management had temporarily shut down the range.

"The guy was trying to clear his gun pointed towards the floor and accidentally shot it. The guy who got hit was next to me and he was hit in his leg next to the shin area," said Sherman.

Fayetteville police reported that the bullet struck the customer in the lower leg and went through his calf. The injuries were not life threatening and the victim was taken to Womack Army Medical Center.

No charges were filed, police said.

Patricia Sherman is one tough mother. She is a Gold Star widow and mother to her sweet little toddler, a spitting image of her father, Sgt. Benjamin Sherman. On November 10, 2009 Sherman died in Afghanistan after jumping into the river to save a colleague who was also swept away by the current. The two soldiers were trying to retrieve airdropped supplies from a river in western Afghanistan.
