He took off his shoe and threw it at the bug to kill it, but a revolver he had hidden in the shoe fell to the ground. Upon making contact with the floor, the gun discharged and the bullet hit the victim in the foot.

That's even more bizarre; how does one hide a gun in their shoe??

She was in the Navy, no less. You'd think that she'd have gun safety drilled into her.
