West Fargo Police are investigating an accidential shooting that sent a man to the hospital Friday afternoon.

Police, responding to the call, found the 22-year old West Fargo man with a gunshot wound to his right foot.  Neighbors had already wrapped the foot to control the bleeding, and the man was taken to Essentia health.  His injuries were not life-threatening.  Police recovered a .22 caliber rifle, shell casing and bullet at the scene.

Assistant Police Chief Mike Reitan says the City Prosecutor will determine whether there will be charges filed for discharging a firearm in the city.
