Marion Man Accidentally Shoots Himself In the Groin

A Marion man is recovering from a gunshot wound that police say was caused by his handgun going off accidentally early Thursday morning.

Police say 46-year old Mark Jones was walking near the Marion Girl Scout Cabin with a handgun tucked into the waistband of his pants when the gun began to slip.  As he reached for the gun, it went off…striking him in the groin area.

Jones was taken to Marion General for treatment.  Police say he doesn’t have a permit for the gun, so the case is being forwarded to the Grant County Prosecutor’s Office for review.
