Officials in Melbourne, Florida said this week that a bullet lodged in a man's testicle after his wife shot him during an argument.
WKMG reported that the incident occurred while 60-year-old Victoria Reid was confronting her husband about an alleged affair.
The Brevard County Sheriff's Office said that Reid forced her husband to sit on the couch, and then she threatened to give him post-traumatic stress disorder by maiming him. Reid told deputies that she also suffered from post-traumatic stress disorder.
According to deputies, Reid threatened to shoot her husband in the chest and in the face. Instead, she allegedly shot him in the knee and the bullet traveled up his leg, lodging in his testicle.
Reid was charged with aggravated battery with a deadly weapon and aggravated assault.
