The son of a murdered Melbourne crime boss pulled down his pants and started crying when he thought he might die after he shot himself in the groin.
A bullet grazed Omar Chaouk's testicle after he reached into his pocket for a cigarette, accidentally shooting himself with a gun he had there, Daily Mail reports.
Son of the late Macchour Chaouk, the 25-year-old pleaded guilty on Tuesday to being a prohibited person in possession of a firearm over the accidental shooting in 2015.
He also pleaded guilty to theft of a sports car in January 2015.
Two months later Chaouk drove off in an acquaintance's car after brandishing a .22 silver handgun and telling the owner he believed Serbian gangsters were after him.
