Man shoots self in face

A 23-year-old man accidentally shot himself in the face Friday morning in a Gold Coast high-rise, Chicago police said. The man, who was being treated Friday morning at Northwestern Memorial Hospital, suffered wounds that authorities said were not life-threatening. Police said the man probably would be charged with possessing an unregistered firearm and not having a firearm owner’s identification card, both misdemeanors.
