A 24-year-old Omaha man who police say shot himself in the genitals was arrested on suspicion of several charges after he was treated at an Omaha hospital.
Brandon Boyce arrived at Creighton University Medical Center about 4:30 p.m. Monday for treatment of the wound. He told doctors and police that he had been shot by someone else.
Investigators later determined that Boyce accidentally had shot himself when he pulled a handgun out of his waistband, Officer Jacob Bettin, a police spokesman, said Tuesday.
.
Boyce was arrested on suspicion of being a felon in possession of a firearm, carrying a concealed weapon and possessing a controlled substance.
Boyce had been wounded in January of 2009 by Andre McKesson, owner of Midwest Grillz & Jewelry at 6209 Ames Ave.
Police said McKesson was defending himself after being shot at by two of Boyce's friends during an attempted robbery. Willie Wakefield, 29, and Marcel Davis, 16, were killed in the gunfight.
There’s a ping for that?

You know, a quick search on the ‘net finds holsters as cheap as $30. Bet he wishes he’d invested a few bucks...
I SWEAR that very same thing went through my head when I read the headline!
And here somebody thought the very same thing and posted it already!
I love this place!
The same thing happens to me here almost every day.
Bet he doesn’t have the b-lls to do that again.
a bit TOO quick on the trigger, i’d say
I love a happy ending!
My two other favorites are the gangsta who was burgling a high rise apartment when the residents returned. In his haste to escape via the balcony, his saggin’ pants dropped to his ankles and tripped him up. Over the balcony he went, falling to his demise.
The second one is the gang banger who decided to turn his piece sideways, Hollywood style, when shooting it out with the poe leeses. The spent casing from one round stovepiped and jammed the action because it was trying to eject UP, and the perp became an easy target. No points were awarded for style, given his fatal outcome.
When felony stupid catches up with a crook, it gives me faith in the world at large...
Ha! I was thinking the same thing...
