One man from Tuesday night's downtown Portland shooting remains hospitalized with a gunshot wound to his leg, while the 40-year-old suspect is being treated for an accidental, self-inflicted gunshot wound to his testicles, police said Wednesday.
An apparent robbery attempt between the two men who were neighbors led to the shooting just before 8 p.m. in the parking lot of an apartment building in the 1400 block of Southwest Park Ave, police said.
During the dispute, the 40-year-old man pulled out a gun and shot the other man in the leg, police spokesman Sgt. Pete Simpson said. The wounded 32-year-old man ran over to the Safeway on Southwest 10th Avenue and Columbia Street for help. He was later taken to the hospital with a leg injury.
As the suspect fled the scene, he accidentally shot himself in the groin, police said.
"The suspect's wound is consistent with somebody putting a gun in his pants," Simpson said Wednesday night.

Oh good! He castrated himself!
The punishment I’ve always wanted but won’t get in this “kind” society. No scum deserve to reproduce.

Sawed-off shotguns in the trousers have been responsible for something else getting sawed off.

I hope not - don’t want to interfere with natural selection.
