On May 3, police were notified by Bridgeport Hospital staff that they were treating Docteur for a gunshot wound to the right leg.
Police said Docteur told them he had been out riding his bicycle on California Street when he was confronted by a half dozen men, dressed all in black with hooded sweatshirts covering their faces.
He said the men demanded his money and then shot him. As they fled they yelled, "North End, North End," which Docteur told police he took to mean they were a gang from the North End of Bridgeport.
But police said Docteur's story just didn't smell right.
Despite insisting he was shot at, police said they could only find a bullet exit hole from his pants.
When they confronted Docteur with this discrepancy, they said he admitted he had accidentally shot himself while riding.
Jimmy Null and Joshua Snow:
It was after midnight and Joshua Snow just grabbed his gun when he saw his car getting burglarized and went outside in his boxers; he didn't have time to get dressed.
Ultimately, holding a gun while wearing nothing but underwear is what made him look so suspicious that his neighbor shot him.
