Man trying to start wedding "with a bang" accidentally shoots grandson

A 62-year-old man officiating a Nebraska wedding accidentally shot his grandson before the ceremony over the weekend, officials said. 

Somebody forgot the wedding rings, so the Saturday ceremony started late and the guests were spread out at the Hillside Events venue in Denton, Lancaster County Sheriff's Office Chief Deputy Ben Houchin said. Michael Gardner, 62, decided to get everybody's attention and "start the wedding with a bang" by shooting a revolver into the air outside.

"When he decided to cock back the hammer on this revolver, it slipped and it shot his grandson in the left shoulder, causing an injury," Houchin said.
