Karma catches up with a crook


Sometimes bad guys get what's coming to them . . . the hard way.  KGW.com reports:

A man was killed when an AR-15 rifle he had just stolen from a Polk County farm discharged Sunday morning, police said.

. . .

... the AR-15 rifle and the shotgun were both angled with their butts on the floorboard and their barrels pointed upward, toward the driver's seat. On the bumpy farm road, the bolt head of the shotgun apparently bumped against the rifle's trigger, firing one shot that hit the suspect and exited through the roof.

There's more at the link.

S*** happens to both the innocent and the guilty.  Thankfully, in this case, it was the latter.

Wow. Only the second time I've heard of being killed by having a premature discharge. (The first one involved an angry bride . . .) ;-)

Nice. And the air is a little cleaner and the food tastes a bit better with one less bad guy in the world.

Is it me, or did some reloader crush the shoulder on that round in the picture???
