BRIGANTINE, N.J. (AP) -- Brigantine police say a hollow-point bullet traveled through a ceiling and hit two people in different rooms of an apartment. Both escaped serious injuries.
Lt. Ray Cox tells The Press of Atlantic City Kevin Dorsey somehow fired a .40-caliber handgun into the floor of his girlfriend's second-floor apartment early Wednesday.
Cox says the bullet grazed the right arm of a woman in the first-floor kitchen and ricocheted, striking her boyfriend in the chest as he sat on a couch. The bullet sort of bounced off the man and landed on the sofa.
Dorsey is charged with aggravated assault and several firearms violations
