Don't know but I bet 10 to 1 that it was a finger in the trigger guard while holstering that did it......
Chances that this opinion is correct about 99.999%. (So called ND)
Chances that there was a malfunction of the weapon that caused a discharge about .0009% (so called AD)
Possibility that it was some other cause about .0001% (so called Supernatural Discharge)

I'd be willing to bet two things.
1. It wasn't a 1911
2. It wasn't a
revolver
Candidate/student for DCJS instructor at a local academy, in drawing his
revolver apparently snagged the hammer on something, jammed the gun back down to free the snag with his finger already on the trigger - promptly shot himself in the leg.
He did not follow range safety rule - Do
NOT put your finger on the trigger until the gun is on target. They were taught to draw with a straight trigger finger and required to sign the range safety rules.
Two things happened: He was taken to the hospital & flunked out of class w/notation "Not Allowed To Repeat."
