VIDEO: Female Venezuelan Police Officer Showing Off Sidearm Shoots Woman

A short video showing a female police officer ("officer 1") talking with another woman outside a metro station in Caracas. For some reason--probably to show off her sidearm--officer 1 removes her pistol from her holster and promptly shoots the woman opposite her. Officer 1 then trots over to another female officer ("officer 2") to, I would guess, explain what happened. Officer 1 and 2 then seat the victim, while officer 2 goes off to look for a phone? Or a male officer to help? It is unclear. But they weren't providing any first aid or calling an ambulance. The description of the video states:

 A 22-year-old woman was seriously injured after a police officer's gun accidentally discharged during a conversation outside a metro station in Caracas. The two women were having a friendly conversation when the gun went off and injured the civilian's abdomen. Authorities said the shooting appears to have been accidental and have opened an internal investigation.
