TWIN PEAKS >> A 19-year-old Twin Peaks man is behind bars after he accidentally shot himself in a buttock following a fight last week, San Bernardino County sheriff’s officials said.

Zachariah Tyrell was arrested Friday after he was released from Arrowhead Regional Medical Center in Colton, according to booking records.

According to authorities, on Friday morning Tyrell flagged down a deputy in front of a Shell gas station on Highway 189 in Twin Peaks asking for help for a gunshot wound, according to a sheriff’s statement, however he did not say how he was injured.

The 19-year-old was shot in his right buttock and was taken to ARMC.

About an hour later, a man went to the Twin Peaks sheriff’s station to report Tyrell had allegedly attempted to shoot him, officials said.

The man said Tyrell came to his house in the 26000 block of Lake Forest Drive around 7 a.m., and the two started arguing. Tyrell was told to leave and did so, according to the statement.

A few hours later, Tyrell returned and reportedly threatened to shoot the victim, officials said.

Tyrell pulled a gun from his rear waistband, inadvertently shot himself in the right buttock and then fled the scene.

When Tyrell was released from the hospital later that afternoon, he was arrested on suspicion of making criminal threats and attempted murder.

Tyrell is scheduled to appear Tuesday in San Bernardino Superior Court, according to sheriff’s booking records.
