<br>
Police in Pocatello, Idaho, are investigating how a university
professor accidentally shot himself in the foot during class.<br>
<p>The injury was non-life threatening and no one else was harmed.
But critics of guns-on-campus laws are pointing to the incident is
a cautionary tale. </p>
<p>The accidental shooting occurred during a Tuesday afternoon
chemistry class at Idaho State University. The professor
reportedly had the small caliber, semi-automatic handgun in his
pocket when it went off. One student told police there were about
20 students in the lab at the time. </p>
<p>The professor did have an Enhanced Concealed Weapons Permit. That
allows people to bring guns onto public college and university
campuses under a new state law that took effect this summer. </p>
<p>The Campaign to Keep Guns Off Campus and other gun control
advocates swiftly noted the incident on social media. A headline
on The Daily Beast read, “The Concealed Carry on Campus Movement
Shoots Itself in the Foot.” </p>
<p>Idaho is among seven states with laws that allow firearms on
higher ed campuses. The measure received strong opposition during
the 2014 legislative session from Idaho’s police chiefs and the
presidents of public colleges and universities, including Idaho
State’s. </p>
In a written statement, the president of the school said it is “in
compliance with the Idaho gun law” and called the shooting an
unfortunate accident.<br>
