    Default Oscar Pistorius nearly shot friend in restaurant



    Oscar Pistorius accidentally fired a gun shot in a busy Melrose Arch restaurant in Johannesburg in January, narrowly missing a friend's foot, Beeld reported on Monday.

    The bullet almost hit the foot of Kevin Lerena, a boxer and mutual friend of Oscar Pistorius and Reeva Steenkamp.

    "I got a huge fright, because the bullet hit the ground just centimetres from my foot ... but it really was just a freak accident," Lerena told Beeld.

    Hi James, i love the work you guys do and i am still a newcomer to mygg. But in all honesty we are hearing alot of this stuff all over the place. I know its my choice not to click a thread but the Off Topic section is starting to look like an Oscar Celebrity gossip page.

    I really mean no harm just sharing a thought.

    Definitely this. All these Oscar stories can easily go in one thread.

    Really, MyGaming? Oscar accidentally almost shooting someone is now news-worthy? Really? What is this, Die Son? Jesus man.

    Are you going to report on the 'gunshot-like noises' that came from the bathroom the night after he ate curry next?

    Ja, I feel the same way. I thought sensationalism was Lazygamer's bag.

    I don't go to news sites at all so I actually like the fact that I get a bit of the news here too. Might be worth looking into having a 'non gaming news' section?

    I get to the site, go to "What's New", so it won;t matter in which dark corner of MyGaming this news is put in....
