Man naked while firing gun out of hospital, jailed

BLOOMINGTON, Ind. (AP) - A gunman who was naked when police said he shot more than 30 rounds from a semi-automatic handgun in a neighborhood near the Indiana University campus has been released from a hospital and jailed on preliminary felony charges including attempted murder.

The Herald-Times reported 21-year-old Indiana University student Corey Joseph Hamersley was booked into the Monroe County Jail on Tuesday afternoon and held on no bond. He also faces preliminary charges of criminal recklessness, pointing a firearm, possession of a controlled substance and possession of marijuana. It wasn't immediately clear if he has an attorney.

He was shot in the legs by Bloomington police officers Friday morning a few blocks southwest of Memorial Stadium. The newspaper reported he needed surgery on his legs.
