A womans medical exam turned into a literal pain in the butt, thanks to a poorly placed firearm.
Thankfully, the injury was relatively mild and she recovered just fine.

According to the report, the inadvertent discharge occurred on June 28.
The unnamed 57-year-old woman entered the MRI room with a concealed and ferrous (iron-containing) handgun.
Its not known whether she had a permit for the gun, however.
Bullets are a relatively less common threat, but not unprecedented either.
The woman in this case was much more fortunate.
After the injury, she was taken to a nearby hospital.
And she later reported that her wound was okay and healing well.
