An Illinois man shot himself in his sleep with a .357 Magnum while he was dreaming about an intruder breaking into his home, officials say.
As if wounding himself in the leg was not punishment enough, the man ended up being arrested because his Firearm Owners Identification Card had been revoked, according to the Lake County Sheriff's Office.
They found Mark M. Dicara, 62, with a wound to his leg and losing a significant amount of blood. Deputies applied a tourniquet and he was then transported to an area hospital for treatment, the sheriff's office said. He shot himself and then woke up with a gunshot wound to the leg, the sheriff's office said. The bullet went through his leg and was lodged in his bed, the sheriff's office said.
