GONZALES - Gonzales Police say they were dispatched to Cabela's Thursday afternoon after an employee shot himself in the hand while showing a handgun to a customer.

Investigators say the .22 caliber fired, sending a bullet through his palm and into the floor. He was treated at the hospital and is said to be in "stable" condition.

We contacted Cabela's in Gonzales who told us they would not be commenting on the situation. Calls to Cabela's corporate media relations office were not returned.
