TUSCALOOSA, Alabama -- After taking a longtime family pet to be euthanized at a Tuscaloosa veterinary clinic, a man shot himself in the parking lot and also injured his adult son, authorities say.

Tuscaloosa police said the 58-year-old man and his 25-year-old son took the family pet to be euthanized at the 69 South Veterinary Clinic on Monday afternoon. The son then found his father in the parking lot with a pistol.

"The father fired the weapon and the round passed through the father's abdomen, and then continued and struck his son in the forearm," a police release stated.

Both men were transported to the hospital and are expected to recover. Police are still investigating and can't currently say if the shooting was intentional or not.
