A New York man had his friend shoot him in the leg with a rifle because he wanted to know how it felt to be shot.
According to State police in St Lawrence County, the shooting occurred around 5p.m. on Sunday in the rural town of Stockholm when 25-year-old Shawn Mossow of neighbouring Norfolk relented to his friend’s repeated requests and shot him once in the right leg with a .22-calibre rifle, Stuff.co.nz reported.
The 24-year-old man from Norfolk is expected to make a full recovery. Police haven’t released his name.
Mossow has been charged with reckless endangerment. He is being held in the county jail on 10,000-dollar bail.
