TAMPA, Fla., Oct. 22 (UPI) -- A Florida man determined to catch a plane dressed his wounds and boarded a flight after being shot in a domestic dispute.
William J. Notaro, 37, of Clearwater, Fla., said a woman shot him three times in the torso Saturday with a small-caliber handgun during an argument in a card game, The Tampa (Fla.) Tribune reported Monday.
Notaro dressed his wounds and boarded a US Airways flight to Albany, N.Y., without revealing to airport officials he had been shot earlier that day, Tampa International Airport spokeswoman Brenda Geoghagan said Sunday.
Once in the air, Notaro asked the flight attendant for a Band-Aid for a gunshot wound, the Tribune reported.
When Notaro landed in Charlotte, N.C., to change planes for Albany, his bleeding became noticeable and he was treated at a local hospital before resuming his flight.
Police are investigating the shooting, though Notaro has said he doesn't want to press charges, the Tribune reported.
