Calling in "shot"
By The Associated Press
Published: 03/24/2008

What happened to faking a cough? Sheriff's detectives in Franklin County said a man had his friend shoot him in the shoulder so he wouldn't have to go to work. When he first spoke with deputies, Daniel Kuch, of Pasco, told them he'd been the victim of a drive-by shooting while he was out jogging. Detectives said Kuch later acknowledged that he asked his friend to shoot him so he could get some time off work and avoid an upcoming drug test.

The friend has been arrested for investigation of reckless endangerment. Kuch was booked into the county jail and is expected to be charged with false reporting. Detectives declined to say where Kuch works, or whether he still has a job. It wasn't known if he had obtained a lawyer.
