A Lowell, Ind. man is recovering after accidentally shooting himself in a Seymour hotel.

The Seymour Police Department is reporting that they were called to the Hampton Inn at about 11:30 p.m. Wednesday night on a report of a shooting.

They found that a 59-year-old man had accidentally shot himself while trying to clean a weapon. He suffered a wound to his upper arm and was taken by Jackson County ambulance to Schneck Medical Center’s emergency room. He was last said to be in good condition.
