SAVANNAH -- Lawrence Maner warily loaded his pistol with a bullet and placed it on his lap in case his passenger tried to rob him. Minutes later, police said Maner had accidentally shot himself while the passenger sat stunned.

Maner had left a Christmas party Saturday night when a stranger asked him for a ride.

He reluctantly agreed, but told police he felt uncomfortable because he had several hundred dollars in cash on him.

So Maner reached into his glove box, took out a pistol, placed one round in the chamber, activated the safety and then rested it on his lap.

"I don\'t want to rob you, but I don\'t know you and I am uncomfortable because you have been drinking," Maner told the man, according to a police report. The stranger, however, still agreed to the ride.

Once driving, someone cut Maner\'s car off, forcing him to slam on the brakes. The gun fell to the floor, unlocking the safety.

When Maner reached down to the floorboard, he picked up the gun by its trigger, accidentally firing a bullet into his left leg, police said.

Ultimately, Maner had to drive himself to the hospital. The terrified passenger fled the scene by foot after the gun was fired, Maner said.

Now this is the story all about how
My life got flipped, turned upside down
And I’d like to take a minute just sit right there
I’ll tell you how I became the prince of a town called bel-air

In west philadelfia born and raised
On the playground where I spent most of my days
Chilling out, maxing, relaxing all cool
And all shooting some b-ball outside of the school
When a couple of guys said we’re up in no good
Started making trouble in my neighbourhood
I got in one little fight and my mom got scared
And said you’re moving with your aunte and uncle in bel-air

(only the first three episodes of season one)

I begged and pleaded with her the other day
But she packed my suitcase and sent me on my way
She gave me a kissin’ and she gave me my ticket
I put my walkman on and said I might aswell kick it

First class, yo this is bad,
Drinking orange juice out of a champagne glass
Is this what the people of bel-air livin’ like,
Hmm this might be alright!

I whistled for a cab and when it came near the
Licensplate said fresh and had a dice in the mirror
If anything I could say that this cab was rare
But I thought now forget it, yo home to bel-air

I pulled up to a house about seven or eight
And I yelled to the cabby yo, home smell you later
Looked at my kingdom I was finally there
To settle my throne as the prince of bel-air
