Upscale redneck.

A woman was shot in the head and four others suffered injuries after a wedding guest’s gun accidentally went off during a reception at the Waldorf Astoria.

Vladimir Gotlibovsky, 42, allegedly fired into the floor of the lobby of the world famous hotel in New York City as wedding reception photos were being taken at around 7.25pm.

Everybody is gonna recover and the gunman claims to be a licensed gun carrier but the police think he handed-off the gun to someone else after the accidental shooting.  They were searching area garbage cans for the gun, hoping they find it before bad guys or children do.

Best line of the night?

‘How could that happen here?’ asked a 53-year-old tourist from Holland who identified himself as Anthony told the Daily News. ‘That’s horrible. I come here and I always hear New York is dangerous, but come on? Even at the Waldorf?’

Apparently so, Anthony.

Thanks to Charles and Kathy for the heads up.
