    Teacher Hurt When Gun Accidentally Hits Toilet
    by Michelle L. Price, AP

    Salt Lake City: Officials said a Utah teacher carrying a concealed firearm at school was struck by fragments from a bullet and a porcelain toilet when her gun accidentally fired.

    Granite School District spokesman Ben Horsley said authorities initially believed the sixth-grade teacher accidentally shot herself in the leg while in a faculty bathroom at an elementary school in the Salt Lake City suburb of Taylorsville.

    Later, the report changed to the belief that the bullet struck a toilet, causing it to explode.

    The incident occurred shortly before class started Thursday at Westbrook Elementary School.

    No one else was injured.

    Horsley said the teacher, Michelle Ferguson-Montgomery, was carrying the weapon legally with a concealed firearm permit. Utah law allows concealed carry in public schools.

    No phone number was listed for Ferguson-Montgomery.

    This one begs for commentary.

    Apparently we're known for four things now - Mormons, salt, crickets and guns.

    If anyone was planning to climb out of that toilet and attack the school, I bet they are second-guessing their plans right now. 'Merica!

    Perhaps a dose of Immodium would keep our militia well-regulated.
