LIMA — No charges will be filed in the case of a Michigan man who accidentally shot himself in the hand last week while drinking, a detective said Monday.

Thomas Miller, 20, of Jackson, Michigan, was visiting a friend’s home at 1622 W. High St. on Wednesday when he found a gun and was looking it over when he accidentally shot himself, said Detective Sean Neidemier of the Lima Police Department.

The shooting happened just before 11 a.m. in a downstairs area of the house. Miller’s injury was not life-threatening, and he was treated at an area hospital, Neidemier said.
