Het is algemeen bekend dat wij van Eigenwereld.nl geen hoge dunk hebben van de Amerikaanse TV serie The Walking Dead. Want het verhaal heeft bijna niks meer met de comics te maken, de acteer prestaties en special effects zijn slecht en het oogt low budget. Maar Jared Gurman is zo gek op de serie dat hij na een verhitte discussie (vast over hoe slecht de show is) met zijn vriendin Jessica zin .22 geweer pakte en haar in de rug schoot. Maar goed, het bericht kan je hier onder lezen en een video met de persverklaring kan je hier bekijken.

A Williston Park man who police said shot his girlfriend in the back with a rifle Monday after a heated argument over the television show "The Walking Dead" told authorities he was annoyed that she came to his apartment to smooth things over.

In a statement to police, Jared M. Gurman, 26, said he told his girlfriend, Jessica Gelderman, 27, also of Williston Park, to leave.

"Jess walked into the room and I fired the gun once and hit her," Gurman said. "She said, 'Oh my God. What did you do?' "

A single round from a .22-caliber semiautomatic rifle pierced Gelderman's lung and diaphragm, and shattered her ribs, said Nassau Det. Lt. Raymond Cote, commander of the Third Squad.

Police said Gurman drove his girlfriend to Long Island Jewish Medical Center in New Hyde Park, where he was arrested. As of late Tuesday, police said, Gelderman was in stable condition with the bullet still in her body.
