That’s nothing Alec Baldwin shot two people with an unloaded gun that he didn’t aim at them then didn’t pull the trigger with live ammo in the weapon BY accident . “ By Accidents” are generally caused by people with their head UP their ass. IMO

Just another Britishism creeping its way into American English.

Like:

He's in hospital
She goes to university
Spot on
Jab
gone missing
