An off‑duty FBI agent accidentally shot a bystander in the leg when his gun fell from its holster as he backflipped on the dance‑floor of a bar in Denver, Colorado,
The fellow customer hit by the bullet was taken to hospital with a non‑life‑threatening injury.
It is unclear if the agent, who has not been named, will face charges or disciplinary action.
The video shows that his wild moves on the dance‑floor had attracted an appreciative crowd at the Mile High Spirits and Distillery bar on Saturday night.
But the mood quickly changed when the gun went off.
As shocked patrons look on, the agent retrieves his weapon, holds up his hands and leaves the floor.
