Authorities initially thought the teacher had accidently shot herself. They now believe she was injured when the bullet and toilet fragments struck her lower leg.

What is wrong with these two sentences?

I'm trying to visualize the scene.... and having difficulty.

Was she in slacks, with the gun in a pocket, and fumbled pulling the slacks up?

Did the gun fall out of a pocket and hit the floor and go off "accidentally"?

Did she get pi$$ed off (sorry) at the toilet and shoot it in cold blood???

WTF???

Highly likely, either the bullet or toilet fragments struck her leg, but not both. If she shot herself, there would not have been fragments. If she shot the toilet, then fragments. IOW, she shot the toilet, but not herself.
