A man was injured Tuesday inside the Joe V’s Smart Shop in Dallas when a gun fired from inside his jacket at a self‑checkout station, according to police sources and store officials.
Officers responded to a shooting call around 3:20 p.m. at the store in the 7000 block of Samuell Boulevard, the Dallas Police Department said. Officers determined the individual had an apparent self‑inflicted gunshot wound.
H-E-B, which owns the Joe V’s brand, reviewed the video and confirmed the gun fired while still inside the customer’s jacket, striking him in the leg. It did not fall to the floor.
Authorities said the man was taken to a local hospital in stable condition.
The case remains under investigation.
