A Florida man accidentally shot himself in the penis after sitting on a gun ― and local reports say he may now face criminal charges for possessing the firearm in the first place.
A woman told police that her boyfriend, 38-year-old Cedrick Jelks, unwittingly sat down on a loaded gun in the drivers seat of his car early Friday morning. The gun reportedly went off, shooting the man in the groin.

(43,191 posts)While Florida is full of weird and colorful characters, the Wild West/anything goes mantra is fed in good part by Florida's loose public records laws, meaning all police reports are freely obtainable by anyone.
And crime in general--whether it's petty or very serious--tends to be very weird and bizarre in general.
So Florida weirdness isn't really much different than any other state's weirdness (and you can do a Google search on any "NAME STATE man" and get plenty of odd news stories) except it's a little more forthcoming and open about it than most.
