That\u2019s when the gun fell. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cIt hits the linoleum, hits the tile floor, and sends a round through the toilet \u2014 right next to her leg,\u201d Sheen recalled.

He called 911. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cNothing about it felt immediately life-threatening,\u201d he said. \u201cBut we were very lucky. If that barrel was a couple millimeters different, who knows?\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Sheen added that Preston wasn\u2019t even particularly angry afterward, but the press immediately spun it into
