A man in Turkey was fatally shot by one of his dogs after it stepped on his shotgun during a hunting trip.

When the incident happened, 32-year-old Ozgur Geverkoglu was out hunting with a friend in the Samsun Province’s Kizlan Plateau. Geverkoglu was putting his dog into his car when his dog’s paw brushed the shotgun, which then fired a few shots at him, according to Newsweek. He was taken to a nearby hospital, where he eventually passed away from his injuries.

An investigation is currently underway to see what transpired before the shooting and his body was transported to the Alacam State Hospital morgue. Ten days before his death, Geverkoglu celebrated the birth of his first child.
