Philadelphia cop accidentally discharges gun at airport as he was unloading it
How embarrassing! Now PPD is going to send him back to training and teach him how to safely handle weapons. Where was he during that part of the Basic Training course?

PHILADELPHIA — Investigators say a flight attendant forgot to take a gun out of her purse before leaving for work and the gun fired at Philadelphia International Airport as a police officer was trying to remove the bullets.
Philadelphia police Lt. Ray Evers says Transportation Security Administration officers noticed the gun Sunday and alerted police. Evers says a police officer tried to make the weapon safe by removing the bullets, but instead accidentally fired it. No one was hurt.
Investigators say the flight attendant has a valid gun permit. She has been cited for passing the gun through a security checkpoint.
Evers says the discharge is being investigated by Internal Affairs and the officer who accidentally discharged the gun will go back to training on handling weapons.
