ST. CLAIRSVILLE, Ohio--On Wednesday, a new sign stating that no guns are allowed was posted at the Ohio Valley Mall Kmart in Belmont County, Ohio.
Why is this news?
Monday evening, a man accidentally dropped his gun on the floor in the store near the pharmacy and it went off.
The new sign applies to everyone, even those with a concealed carry permit
For the most part, shoppers shared that they thought the new sign was a good idea.
The man from Bridgeport, Ohio, who was carrying the gun had a permit. He is not facing any charges.

I hate to be too hard on this guy, because another one of us could have made this mistake, but it is extremely frustrating to see another CPZ created because of carelessness on the part of one man. I found it interesting that the article does not say whether or not this man had a CCW. Is it possible this was one of our own, an OCer, that did this?
