Plaxico Burress Got Off Easy

Fifteen-year-old Khamir Grant of Brooklyn was carrying a gun in his waistband in East Flatbush on Sunday when he felt it begin to slip down his leg. He grabbed the gun, Plaxico-style, to stop it from falling to the pavement and accidentally firing. Instead, the weapon went off in his pants and fired a bullet through his penis. He ran home and told his mother what happened. She took him to the hospital, where he was treated. Afterward he was arrested by police. Because that's a lesson even the cops didn't want him to have to learn twice. [NYP]
