Man accidentally shot himself on way back from firearms safety class

A South Florida man accidentally shot himself in the leg while on his way back from a firearms safety class. The accidental shooting occurred at about 9:45am on Friday.
Boynton Beach police said officers found Eric Morkert sitting in the bed of his pickup truck with a gunshot wound to his right leg.
Morkert told police he'd just left a firearms safety class and had pulled over to inspect his new Glock 17. Morkert said he removed the magazine and was manipulating the slide when the gun discharged.
Paramedics arrived and took Morkert to Delray Community Hospital for treatment. He was expected to be okay. Police took possession of the gun.
