Think your Valentine’s Day was bad?
This Oak Creek couple provided another reminder that it could have been worse.
According to an Oak Creek police report, a 24-year-old man called 911 about 5:45 p.m. Feb. 14 saying he just accidentally shot his girlfriend in the butt with a 9-millimeter handgun.
Dispatchers instructed him on how to tend to his girlfriend’s wounds as he waited for police and paramedics to arrive, according to the report. A police canine searched the couple’s residence, in the 500 block of E. Town Square Court, and determined it was safe for officers to enter.
Paramedics then transported the 21-year-old woman to the hospital, while police took the man to the Oak Creek Police Department for questioning.
Officers arrested him for endangering safety by use of a dangerous weapon. He has not been charged, according to online court records.
The extent of the woman’s injuries was not known, but police said Friday they were not life threatening.
