Machete-wielding man shot at gun shop
By Elizabeth BinningA man wielding a machete has been shot at a gun shop in Auckland this morning.
The shooting happened at SAI Guns and Ammo in Penrose at about 10am.
The 19-year-old man entered the shop at 553 Great South Road, on the corner with Walls Road, carrying a machete.
He was shot in the stomach by one of the people inside using a handgun.
The Ambulance Service said the 19-year-old had serious injuries. He was taken to Auckland City Hospital where he was conscious on arrival and was undergoing surgery this morning.
Scene-setting information: guns are rare in New Zealand, and hand guns moreso. There are maybe 4 gun shops across the wider Auckland area, home to 1 million plus people.
The scary thing is that people this stupid are still elegible to vote (except when they’re in jail). I’m sure I’ve seen something like this on the Darwin awards.
Is a 19 year old guy a “man”?
If so, awesome! I’m throwin’ a man party!
** not as gay as that sounds **
Later reports stated that he wanted to get a gun to “top” himself. He can’t be too stupid, either way he was going to get shot. Sad though.
