An 80-year-old Saudi woman suffered from injuries after she accidentally shot herself while she was cleaning her bus band’s gun, a newspaper reported on Saturday.
The woman has just started cleaning her husband’s machine gun without knowing it was loaded at their home in the southern province of Asir.
“She accidentally pressed the trigger and the bullet hit her…she was rushed to hospital where she was saved,” Ajel newspaper said, adding that the woman remained in the intensive care unit with a stable condition.
