I rest a little easier knowing that Texas is not the only place with Dewayne and Billy Bob.

In Montville, Ohio, two ole boys decided to try target practice with an AK-47 in a residential neighborhood.  They almost killed a teenager, her mother, a grandpa and a two children.  They did a microwave oven and a sofa.

The story is headlined, “Bullets strike Montville homes, narrowly miss officers as AK-47 target practice goes awry”

I underlined the good parts for you —

Montville Township police found themselves dodging bullets as they tracked down where the shots were originating.

“When I get about a half mile back in the field up on a hill, gunfire started again, and started hearing rounds go over my head,” said Montville Police Sgt. Matt Neil.

Police said the men on Windfall Road were shooting at a target in a field with handguns and an AK-47.

“They were drinking alcohol, they had some drugs on them and they were just outside, in their backyard shooting paper targets,” Neil said. “They felt because they were shooting at a downward angle, that it would have been OK.”

Bullets skipped off the ground, and carried over hills striking at least two homes police estimated to be a 500 yards from where the target shooting took place.

A mother and her daughter left the kitchen just seconds before the wall mounted microwave oven was hit.

And under the category of, “No shoot, Sherlock” comes this from one of the victims:

Kuruc, grateful no one was injured, echoed a warning Montville police are sending, “If people are going to target shoot out there, be very careful with where that bullet goes because it could have killed somebody.”

I guess they showed President Obama who’s boss, huh?

Thanks to Stan for the heads up.

And thanks to Brian for finding us this picture of the police officer who almost got hit trying to get them to quit firing.

Two men, 53-year-old Mark Bornino and 45-year-old R. Daniel Volpone, were arrested and are facing felony charges. Police seized an AK-47 with two high-capacity magazines, three handguns, over 700 rounds of ammunition and some marijuana.
