Mark Dicara of Illinois has been charged with possession of an illegal firearm and reckless discharge after shooting himself in the leg in his sleep.

A man in Illinois has been charged after he allegedly shot himself while he was asleep.

Mark Dicara said he was dreaming and shot what he thought was a burgular, but awoke to find he had instead shot himself in his own leg.


Police said the gun used was a .357 Magnum and did not hurt anyone but Dicara.

"The round discharged from the firearm went through Dicara's leg and lodged itself into Dicara's bedding."
"Fortunately, the round did not travel through a shared wall with Dicara's neighbors."

Dicara was charged, as he already had his Firearm Owners Identification Card revoked before this incident.

Dicara has also been charged with reckless use of a firearm.

Well, he succeeded at shooting something, people pointed out.

So good it might as well be a new sport.

Or a new term for an old issue.

Others used this incident to make a point about common rhetoric used by gun owner's organizations.

Or just pointing out that maybe not everyone should have one.


Some people found his whole story to be a little suspicious.


The punishment was the act itself, was it not?

Dicara will appear in court later this month.

Trump Ripped After Going Off On Bonkers Rant About Room's Decor During Cabinet Meeting

During Tuesday's cabinet meeting while the press was in attendance, MAGA Republican President Donald Trump gave a rambling stream of consciousness speech that went all over the place before landing on paint versus gold leaf, leading people to again question the POTUS' mental acuity amid a notable cognitive decline.

In a disjointed monologue about the decor in the cabinet room, Trump said he stole a grandfather clock from Secretary of State Marco Rubio's office and chose a painting of James Polk because the frame matched the frame around his favorite President—Andrew Jackson.
