Cheney Shot In Hunting Accident In 1990s...


Years before U.S. Vice-President Dick Cheney accidentally shot a lawyer while quail hunting in Texas, Cheney himself was on the receiving end of an errant shotgun blast.

Carlsbad Mayor Bob Forrest said he didn't know for certain if he or his twin brother, Dick Forrest, fired the shot during the hunting trip in the late 1990s. It accidentally pelted Cheney, who was then chief executive at Halliburton Co.
