Hunter accidentally shot dead by his own dog in freak accident

A new dad tragically died after he was accidentally shot by his own dog during a hunting excursion in Turkey over Thanksgiving weekend.

The freak accident occurred while Ozgur Gevrekoglu, 32, was pursuing game with his pals on the Kizlan Plateau in Samsun Province last weekend, Newsflash reported.

While the expedition went off without a hitch, disaster struck while the big game hunter was packing up to leave.

Gevrekoglu was reportedly putting his pet dog in the trunk of the car, when its paw inadvertently touched the trigger of the still-loaded shotgun, causing the weapon to discharge into the hunter at close range.

The dog-lover was subsequently rushed to Alacam State Hospital, but was pronounced dead on arrival.

A little small-potatoes for the World News category, but didn't know where else to put it - perhaps a Darwin Award thread would be appropriate.
