    The guy already shot himself, does he really need legal charges on top of that?

      In Illinois you apparently need to have a valid and registered gun owner identification card to legally own a firearm, this guys card was revoked for unspecified reasons, so he's charged with owning a gun without his license.

      Also reckless discharge of a firearm, which idk what specifically that legally is defined as but shooting in your sleep seems like it would count.

      Yeah like it's not illegal to have a gun right, and this guy sleepwalked or something and blasted himself. What did he really do that was illegal

        He didnt have a loicense

        But apparently they also charged him with reckless discharge which... I dunno I get why they did it but it's kinda bullshit
