Most likely an urban legend. According to the laws of most, if not all, states, so long as the shooting was justified, any third parties injured or killed are considered the fault of the criminal, not the justified shooter, regardless of who fired the bullet.


Legend?
Could be, Hawk. As to the rest, I don't know, to be honest.
The point I was trying to make is that a CCW holder or whoever ought to be darn careful about where they put those bullets!
