<br />
<br />A British man who accidentally shot himself in the
<br />testicles after drinking 15 pints of beer was jailed
<br />for five years on Tuesday for possessing an illegal
<br /> firearm, a court spokesman said. David Walker, 28, was
<br /> arguing with a friend at a pub in South Yorkshire, northern
<br /> England, when he went home to get his sawed-off shotgun,
<br /> which he jammed into his trousers. But as he walked back
<br />to the pub, the gun went off, blasting pellets into his testicles.
<br /> Doctors later removed what remained of his testicles during
<br /> emergency surgery.Walker admitted possessing a prohibited
<br /> weapon at a hearing in June at the court in Sheffield.
