Pankaj Kishore Karotia, a 21-year-old Indian groom, was shot and killed by his uncle at his own wedding celebration, after a “revelry shot” went horribly wrong.
Karotia’s bride had been waiting for him in the car as the wedding party drew to a close in Noida, India. His uncle, Rajkumar Karotia, drew a licensed pistol to shoot a celebratory shot in the air. As the pistol was loaded, a shot accidentally went out, hitting the groom in the head.
gun negligence is planet wide, but we have well-regulated militias. so this accident is less likely here.
Bad headline. It should say “Uncle Kills Groom.”
Oh, if only the rest of the wedding party had been armed, surely at least one of them would have seen what was about to happen and killed the uncle before he could kill the groom.
Guns are for shooting people, not for celebrating. Shame on the uncle for attempting to use the gun for something other than its imbued purpose.
The sadness of this story is overwhelming.
Guns make us safer!
Guns don’t kill people.
I do.
wonder how many grooms & brides have died on the drive to the ceremony in those coffins with wheels? my guess is many more than the number shot in the head by a gun.
Don’t feed the Mudede Troll.
This is pretty funny.
I was advised to stay indoors after big football victories in Istanbul – people fire into the air after a big win, forgetting all about gravity and the fact that what goes up must come down.
