Woman shot in the head at Waldorf Astoria wedding
A fancy Waldorf wedding turned bloody Saturday evening when a guest’s gun accidentally went off, the bullet grazing the head of a female guest.

Three other guests were struck in their legs by flying marble, tile and glass from the ricocheting bullet, authorities said.
No one was seriously hurt.
The guests had been snapping photos in their suits and party dresses in the internationally famed Waldorf Astoria Hotel at 7 p.m. when the mayhem began, a law-enforcement source told The Post.
A gun allegedly belonging to Vladimir Gotlibovsky, 42, discharged in his pocket. The bullet blasted a gaping hole with burnt edges in his pants before the gun fell to the ground.
Gotlibovsky, of Mill Basin, Brooklyn, was unscathed, but the slug ricochetted and grazed the head of Maya Rafailovich, 55, of Brighton Beach.
She was wheeled out of the hotel on a gurney, shoeless and with orange straps criss-crossing her little black cocktail dress. A white bandage covered her forehead.
Her eyes were open — and angry — as she was rolled into a Bellevue Hospital-bound ambulance.
The other injured guests, a 59-year-old man and two women, 38 and 45, suffered minor leg wounds and were taken to Bellevue and Roosevelt hospitals.
Gotlibovsky, rear-cuffed and still wearing his dark suit and blue tie, was taken into custody for questioning.
“I didn’t do anything,’’ he said as he was led into the Midtown North precinct.
Two other people — presumably witnesses — were also taken there.
He told police he has a gun permit, the source said. Police were checking.
Cops could not immediately find the weapon and for a while checked garbage cans in the area.
But Gotlibovsky had handed it off to a relative, who was expected to turn it in to police, the source said.
“We have various video and evidence that we are looking at to further the investigation,” Chief William Aubry told reporters Saturday night.
The gunfire set tongues wagging outside the ritzy hotel.
“The police came out with a balding husky guy wearing a suit,’’ said tourist Tina Fallis of Canada.
“It’s like something like you see on ‘CSI,’” she said, adding she didn’t expect that kind of violence in such a “prestigious’’ hotel.
Rafailovich’s daughter, who asked that her name not be printed, told The Post, “She’s in the hospital. I’m on my way there. They’re doing MRIs and X-Rays.’’
