 The off-duty Oakdale police officer was inside a hospital room at Sutter General Hospital with his family member and was about to go for a walk when he began handling his weapon and it went off— the gunshot striking his own body, according to the Oakdale Police Chief Jerry Ramar ... A Sacramento Police Department investigation determined the shooting was an accident. A spokesperson would not say whether it was a weapons malfunction or the officer accidentally pulled the trigger. Neither the Oakdale Police chief nor Sacramento police would identify the off-duty officer. [More]
