Cherokee County officials say a Tahlequah man died near Camp Gruber in what they believe is an accidental shooting.
Cherokee County Sheriff’s Office Investigator James Brown said James Woolard died at a gun range near the Zeb entrance of Camp Gruber.
Woolard, 44, died from what appeared to be an accidental self-inflicted gunshot wound, Brown said.
“It looks like he was target practicing out there,” Brown said. “I don’t know if he was cleaning his gun, or what.”
I could understand shooting yourself in the leg or the foot by accident, but a lethal shot to the head or chest? I can't even imagine how a lawful gun owner who has some experience with guns could do that. Can you?
