Going on to explain what happened, Misty wrote that her husband was standing outside his truck to reach in and grab the gun when it came out of its holster, hit the exterior of the Jeep ‘just right and went off’. ‘Sundance said it happened so fast and he could see the bullet dislodging. I thought he called 911 he didn’t – he put his hands in pocket for phone immediately after getting hit but phone wasn’t there just filled with blood so he took off down the driveway out to the main road to flag a car down for help.

’ She said it took about ’10 cars later’ for someone to turn around, help and call 911. Misty, who said her husban.
