Chase Bishop probably isn't in the mood for backflips anymore after his infamous one at a Denver bar earlier this month. The FBI agent who accidentally shot a man in the leg after his gun fell from its holster while dancing turned himself in to Denver police Tuesday and was booked into jail on a charge of second-degree assault. The 29-year-old from the FBI's Washington Field Office, due in court Wednesday, may also face additional charges, depending on the results of a blood alcohol test, per CBS News. Those results are expected in about a week.
Bishop was off duty but in Denver for training at the time of the June 2 shooting at Mile High Spirits, reports the Denver Channel. Pointing out that it's against its rules for a patron to carry a firearm without informing staff, the bar says 24-year-old victim Thomas Reddington is "welcome at Mile High Spirits to enjoy complimentary drinks forever," per the New York Times. Reddington's lawyer says he's weighing a lawsuit against the FBI, which is conducting its own investigation, with suspension and termination among possible outcomes. (More FBI agent stories.)
