A German man has been deemed unfit to keep his firearms license after being shot by his dog in the arm, according to reports.
A Munich administrative court on Tuesday dismissed his appeal against an earlier ruling that revoked his license and hunting permit. The man – whose name was not released – was wounded in his arm in 2016 after his dog managed to release the trigger of a rifle left in his car.
The court felt he was unreliable ”because it must be assumed that he will handle firearms and ammunition carelessly in future as well."
