Maybe his trigger finger is quicker to compensate for not having legs…SMH Oscar Pistorius Almost Shot Friend Weeks Before Girlfriend’s Shooting Death Via NYPost Gun-loving “Blade Runner” Oscar Pistorius nearly shot a friend two weeks before allegedly blowing away his gorgeous gal pal, according to published reports today. Pistorius, in jail since the Valentine Day’s slaying of stunner Reeva Steenkamp, accidentally shot one round at the foot of boxer Kevin Lerena, while they dined with friends at a swanky Johannesburg restaurant, the fighter told Beeld newspaper. Lerena said Pistorius mishandled the weapon and it fired one round that nearly hit his foot. “I got a huge fright, because the bullet hit the ground just centimeters from my foot. I must emphasize that the gun belonged to one of Pistorius’ friends,” Lerena told the newspaper. “Oscar just wanted to look at the gun, and it sort of snagged on his pants, releasing the safety catch. A shot went off. I wouldn’t call him negligent, it was just an accident. He apologized to me for days afterwards.” Not a good sign for poor lil’ Tink-Tink, especially being that his defense will be that he’s a responsible gun owner who thought his house was under attack by an intruder.
