Man chewing bullet shoots self in face

A man is recovering after injuring his face at his home. Police believe this was an accident.

Police were first called to the man's home on 2400 block of South 128th East Avenue in Tulsa to reports of a shooting. When they got there they found no shooting but the victim with a serious gash on his face.



He told police a shell had bounced off of his garage floor and hit him in the face. Police think he might have been chewing on a bullet when it exploded.

He was taken to St. John Medical Center with non life-threatening injuries where ER doctors recovered a bullet from his sinus cavity.

I think we can all understand this. Sometimes you just have to bite the bullet.

Didn't know chewing a bullet could make it explode. What kind of jaw power does this man have?!
