Also my guess is he hit his femoral artery and bled out quick. Blowing his c*ck
off would be unpleasant for him but probably not fatal.

He was probably grabbing the gun while he was trying to turn the car with the
other hand and like a dumbass stuck his finger in there to get ready to pop his
target but shot off his “groin” before he could do the other guy.
The most curious aspect is that it happened at 630AM. The bangers
No holster is no bueno. The trigger IS the safety. Keep your booger hooks off
of the bang switch, no issues. Catch ANYTHING on the trigger (ie hoodie string)
it's going to go bang. The only modern firearm that has had issues with
unintentional discharge WITHOUT the trigger being operated is the
There were some comments FWIW in another post about this incident that referred

to firing when not intended due to no safety and being ready to fire, getting
knocked or something. There might have been a report

Semi-auto guns have MORE parts in them to ensure that they don't fire
again when they close back up, unless the trigger is cycled again.
But if something's broken... No worse surprise than finding a semi-auto

I don't own any pistols -- my understanding is that Glocks don't have a
traditional safety "switch" as such, but they do have mechanisms to prevent
firing other than by a deliberate trigger pull.

I carried a Glock 19 daily for many years, and this is the first I'm
hearing of a self-firing one. The only "failure" I'm aware of is the
tendency to go full auto. That happened at the range once. But even then
it was easy to control.
If a trigger catches on any weapon it may fire. Even a pocket
