You rarely see someone go from "generous boyfriend" to "oh he's going to prison" faster than this.

A 19-year-old guy named Anthony Ciccarelli from Tonawanda, New York took his girlfriend out to dinner at a Texas de Brazil on Thursday, which is a pretty expensive chain restaurant.

But when he reached for his wallet to pay, somehow he accidentally triggered the GUN he had in his pants . . . and SHOT his girlfriend in the leg.

She was rushed to the hospital with non-life-threatening injuries.

But it turns out it was a STOLEN gun.  So he was charged with reckless endangerment and criminal possession of a firearm.  And he's facing up to seven years in prison.
