Cisco officer's gun goes off in loo.
An auxiliary police officer allegedly fired his gun by accident at Bukit Gombak MRT station yesterday.
The Certis Cisco officer, a 28-year-old man, was on duty when the incident happened between 6.30pm and 7pm in the staff toilet of the train station.
He was there on assignment, and was not stationed there.
Common assignments for auxiliary police officers include ensuring the safe transportation of money to and from ATMs and banks.
A police spokesman confirmed that they received a call at 7pm yesterday regarding an incident of an accidental discharge of a firearm at the station by an auxiliary police officer.
He said no one was injured and that the police are investigating.
Hmmm...the officer should have drawn the fleshy one.

A BBC orchestra was caught in the Japanese earthquake and is cutting short its 17 day tour of the country. The musicians with the Manchester-based BBC Philharmonic experienced the tremor travelling on a coach from Tokyo to Yokohama.
The Korea’s popular girl group 2NE1 arrived in Japan on March 9th for their March 11th appearance in Tokyo. Their Japanese debut has been postponed in light of the horrific 9.0 earthquake disaster.
They were on the 34th floor of the hotel. Because it was higher up, the shaking is more severe, "I thought I was going to fly out" said a band member.
Another Korean girl group KARA were shooting their Japanese drama when the earthquake occurred.
Xiah Junsu of South Korean boy band TVXQ was also in Japan when the earthquake struck.
AK, a Taiwanese duo consisting of Andy Chen (陳奕) and Kris Shen (沈建宏) and Peter Ho were in Tokyo to perform in a concert when the earthquake struck.

Doomsday
Soothsayers never give up.
The end of the world has been predicted, came and went, and we are still here.
This is the latest.
HOLY GOD WILL BRING JUDGMENT DAY ON MAY 21, 2011
The people of the earth, which we call mankind, were created to rule over this earth. God gave laws by which we can live as happily and wisely.
He warns, however, that the breaking of those laws is sin, and sin will bring punishment from God. For the wages of sin is death.
God must also obey His law and therefore, since all the people of the world are sinners, He must destroy the world. The Bible warns in Jeremiah 25:33.
Seven days before the beginning of the Flood that completely covered the entire earth, God commanded Noah to warn the people of the world that they had seven days to get into the safety of the ark. The Holy Bible tells us that on the 17th day of the 2nd month of that year God shut the door of the ark. Then, the Flood began to completely cover the entire earth. He also warned that the time would come when Holy God would destroy the whole world by fire. Our entire universe would be forever destroyed.
But be not ignorant that one day is with the Lord as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day.
Therefore, with the correct understanding that the seven days referred to in Genesis 7:4 can be understood as 7,000 years.
Seven thousand years after 4990 BC (the year of the Flood) is the year 2011.
Amazingly, May 21, 2011 is the 17th day of the 2nd month of the Biblical calendar of our day. Remember, the flood waters also began on the 17th day of the 2nd month, in the year 4990 BC.
The end of the world has been predicted, came and went, and we are still here.
