(UPDATE) Patrol Captain Dan McDonough reports that the man was doing draw exercises with a 9mm pistol handgun when it accidentally discharged and he shot himself in the leg.
This was an accidental shot, and his condition is still unknown.
No one else was injured, and the man was driven by a witness to the eastbound Jackrabbit exit, where they met with a Central Valley Fire District Ambulance.
Captain McDonough reminds everyone to treat all weapons as if they're loaded.
