TYSONS, Va. (WKRC) – An officer allegedly lost his gun at an entertainment center, leading to a teen girl shooting it under the belief it was a prop.
According to information from the Fairfax County Police Department obtained by local outlet NBC Washington, a police captain lost his firearm while playing a game at Level99, an entertainment center with a large variety of mental and physical games for adults.
A 14-year-old girl reportedly discovered the weapon and, believing it to be a prop, discharged the firearm. Luckily, nobody was struck or injured in the accidental shooting, police said. The teen reportedly requested medical assistance, but was just treated at the scene.
Authorities did not reveal how much time passed between when the captain lost his gun and when the teenager shot it.
