Man shoots at pranksters after mistaking paintball gun for real gun
A man opened fire Friday on a prankster who fired paintballs at him after mistaking the paintball gun for a real gun, according to police in Michigan City.
Authorities said the 40-year-old man was pumping gas at a BP gas station when he began to hear popping sounds and felt stings on his body.
“The (man) then saw someone out of the passenger side widow of a passing vehicle with what appeared to be a gun,” police said. “The (man), thinking that he was being shot at by the passenger in this vehicle, drew his concealed firearm and fired several shots at the vehicle.”

I pray that the officer recovers soon! May God Bless him and his family! As far as the paint ball idiot, he will be painting his own grave with that thing???
BZ to the 2 AND 4 legged officers for tracking down and taking out the trash. Drinks on me and an extry bone for the K9. There was some “mostly peaceful” protests in and around Alexandria/DC because of the untimely retirement of this urban entrepreneur.
Paintball gun to a real gun fight? Stupid is as stupid does.
