A man in his 40s has been charged with gross negligence causing bodily harm after accidentally shooting his friend in the thigh during a wild boar hunt in January last year, according to P4 Örebro. The incident occurred in Askersund municipality, Närke, while the two were hunting from their hunting team's caravan. The unsecured firearm was on a table with the muzzle pointed at the friend; the defendant accidentally triggered the trigger, and the bullet passed through the caravan's interior before hitting the friend. The defendant admits the event but denies criminal liability.
