Gun Goes Bang - Misdemeanor Charge

[hooky]

Guy is cleaning his loaded pistol, bullet passes through his TV and his wall, crosses a street and goes through the neighbor's wall and dents a frig as a ricochets and comes to rest in another wall. The worst part may be that he just ho hummed it for a day until questioned by the po-po.

You have to wonder if he wasn't doing dry fire practice at the tv and it turned out to be not as "dry" as he anticipated. Seems like "cleaning the gun" is often a catch all for other behavior. Not really on topic, but I'd bet a lot of 'cleaning the gun and shot himself" are suicides and they set it up as accident so life insurance or pensions pay off. Guess it doesn't really matter, just pondering.

"he thought the bullet had also dented his stainless steel refrigerator" and that dent in his car, and the microwave, and scratched his big screen tv, and scuffed his hardwood floor.

Wait a sec., a 9mm passed through a TV, TWO EXTERIOR WALLS, and still dented a sheet of stainless steel on a refrigerator?

heck, some exterior walls are just r board and vinyl siding on the other side of the sheet rock. You can probably break into one of those houses with a sharp knife.

I'm just amazed that he didn't say anything to anyone when he did it. Maybe I'm giving people too much credit for being decent though.

I'm not surprised.

Charges will be dropped, he'll pay to fix the house, and that'll be the end of this one.

Nobody's going to jail for unintentional damage to someone else's property.

Holy crap!, the responding cops name is Outhouse
