The wrong end of the shotgun

This is probably one of the more amazing stories I've read lately. A victim tricks a robber into giving up his sawed-off shotgun ... then proceeds to beat, strip and rob the guy who had been trying to rob him.

Everything goes smashingly until the shotgun, which is being used to beat the robber, goes off and hits the "victim" in the stomach, killing him. The robber ran away naked.

Hat Tip: Many thanks, You're A Mean Drunk R2D2!

See if he would have just kept it at protecting himslef...intead of trying to get ahead....he might still be alive.

Pretty bizarre!

Why would you beat the guy with a loaded gun anyhow? Sounds kinda stupid.

Accidental death sounds good to me.

This is what happens when you take jesus out of shot guns.

Actually this is what happens when you take Jesus out of pistol whipping. ;)

only a fool doesn't check a gun before beating the hell out of someone with it.

What an idiot, why would you beat someone with the butt end of a shotgun? The barrel end would of done more damage being made of steel, instead of wood or plastic.

OMG I used to work at St. Agnes Hospital (where the guy got his foot stitched up). You don't want to go there, it's a war zone. Maybe he'll get tetanus.
