    The injury is obvious...

    Adding insult to it is just humiliating...
    The man "had a dream that someone was breaking into his home" and fired a .357-caliber revolver, it said. The bullet went into the bed, it said.

    "When he fired, he shot himself and apparently woke up from the dream," the sheriff's office statement said.

    He was charged with possessing a firearm with a revoked Firearm Owners Identification, which is required in Illinois, and reckless discharge of a firearm, the sheriff’s office said in a statement.
