LAKEWOOD, Washington - Troopers say a driver near Tacoma, Washington, saw an object strike the front of his car during his evening commute Wednesday. When he stopped for gas 18 miles later, he discovered it was a handgun.

The weapon was embedded in his bumper, barrel-end first, with the trigger sticking out just below the driver's-side headlight.

Washington State Patrol Trooper Guy Gill says the driver notified troopers, who recovered the gun, which was missing its magazine. Gill calls it a "completely bizarre way to recover a weapon."

The driver didn't know whether the gun came from an overpass or another vehicle.

6. Lakewood is where Joint Base Lewis/McChord is

Lots of guns in the area, I wonder if a soldier left it on a bumper or such, I found a black Army demolition Gerber multi tool on the road one day outside the base.

But a gun?
