Karma’s a bi***.

And the gun wasn’t even his, it was stolen- just to add insult to injury.

Among the charges were:

A Crestview resident called deputies and reported that a suspicious man was walking around in front of her home with what looked like a gun shot wound to his leg.

Deputies arrived and found McCall with a confirmed gun shot wound and took him to receive medical treatment at a nearby hospital.

According to local coverage of the incident, they stated:

“An investigation by the Sheriff’s Office revealed several residential surveillance cameras had allegedly caught McCall on video committing a series of vehicle and home burglaries.”
