And now....cop clumsily unholsters gun, shoots self and daughter with same bullet.

FAIRBANKS, Alaska (AP) — Police say an Alaska corrections officer accidentally shot his 12-year-old daughter in the leg when they went for physical therapy appointments.

Initial police reports said the shooting occurred when the father removed his jacket and didn't want other patients to see his holstered .40-caliber pistol.

But Welborn said Thursday the father also had a therapy appointment, and the shooting occurred when he removed the pistol from his hip holster as he prepared to get on a therapy table.

The bullet went through his forearm before striking his daughter.

4. Why would he even be bringing a loaded gun to his physical therapist appointment?

It says he's a corrections officer - surely that means he's only "on duty" when he's at the prison.

5. He was armed and ready to "self defend" against too much massage pressure???

6. Child Protective Services could take her away if he'd hit her

She is endangered and should be removed from his custody asap.
