TOOELE -- Brotherly bonding over guns ended with one of the siblings in the hospital.
The Tooele County Sheriff's Office says the pair was driving from their home in Elko Nevada to Salt Lake City Saturday morning when they began comparing the weapons they both had with them. It was then that one of the brothers accidentally shot the other.
He apparently did not realize his gun was loaded.
The man was shot in the leg. He was transported via helicopter to the University of Utah Medical Center and is expected to be OK.
