A former Montana park ranger has now publicly accused Tim Sheehy " a Republican running for a US Senate seat in the state " of lying about getting shot while at war in Afghanistan. In an interview with the Washington Post published on Friday, 67-year-old Kim Peach went on the record about how Sheehy " a former US navy seal " actually shot himself on a family trip in 2015 at Glacier national park. Peach's account explicitly contradicts Sheehy's claim that he was shot in the arm during military combat, a story that the Republican candidate has shared throughout his US Senate campaign. Peach said that Sheehy's allegedly self-inflicted wound left him with a bullet lodged in his right arm at Glacier national park in Montana's Rocky Mountains. He told the Post that he first met Sheehy at a hospital in the area of the park during the aftermath of the 2015 episode.
