A Port St. Lucie Florida woman has been held on a gun charge after she claimed that she accidentally shot her husband in the head after being startled by the burglar alarm.
April Moylan, 39 years of age, was charged on Wednesday with possession of a firearm by a convicted felon and has been ordered held on a $75,000 bond.
Sheriff Ken mascara stated on Wednesday that the attorney’s office is going over the facts of the case and additional charges could be laid in the future.
Now here’s where the story takes a strange turn:
April’s husband, Michael Eugene Moylan, 45, awoke early Tuesday morning with a severe headache. The couple went to the hospital where the bullet was discovered in Moylan’s head.
It was first thought that Moylan might have been the victim of a stray bullet but it was later discovered that the couples stories didn’t match up.
The couple finally fessed up and told authorities that April sleeps with a loaded .32 caliber gun under her pillow. When the burglar alarm sounded at 4 a.m. Tuesday morning she grabbed the gun and it accidentally discharged a bullet into her husbands head just behind his ear.
The couple hadn’t wanted to tell the truth because they are both convicted felons and as a result are not allowed to own a gun so they came up with the headache story.
April was previously convicted for sale and delivery of cocaine in Palm Beach County. At this time her husband Michaels criminal record is not available.
Michael Moylan’s head wound was not considered life threatening. He’s recovering in the hospital.
It seems that Michael is a lucky man! I wonder what other charges the couple might face when the investigate concludes?
