WHITTIER — A man suffered a gunshot wound to his leg Saturday afternoon in what was initially believed to be an accidental shooting.
The incident was reported at 2:37 p.m. at a home in the 7600 block of Paul Driver, Whittier police Sgt. Jim De Masi said.
Few details were initially available, as wounded man — who had been shot in the thigh — did not appear to be cooperating with police, the sergeant said.
The wounded man was believed to be alone in a home when the shot was fired, he said.
