That guy had ninja turtles among the lot out there. You only think the bullet richocheted on the guy. He may have been overtaken by the angry mob.

ANd just to flog a dead cow's...arse....(just to see if you're reading)
Long ago I remember a wire article about a guy in suburban San Diego who went out to settle nocturnal depradating tortoises in his garden once and for all.
His wife found him in the garden amongst a number of dead and dying tortoises, the victim of a ricohet.

Bullets don't recognize any laws but Newton's.
I remember the second summer I visited my grandfather in the Ozarks. They had some problems with nocturnal deer hunters or some such. One morning he asked if I had been shooting his bullfrogs. Someone had, but the frogs had been done in with something a lot bigger than the .22 I used to kill snappers and cottonmouths.
Many places in the U.S. have deer running our of their ears (and onto their interstate highways), damaging forest and crops, starving, getting into yards and attacking pets and people. The deer need harvesting, but we do not need yahoos, unrestrained kids, and untutored people in the suburban/country interface with guns. Period.

Had it been a mouse, I think the neighbor who asked for the favor would have been killed, and the shed in question would have ended up in flames. That is pretty scary.

There was actually a made-for-TV movie about someone getting shot in his own backyard by nearby hunters. I know that has happened in a few places, and I'm really surprised this person was found innocent. Maybe their laws don't distinguish residential sections as off limit. Around here, woods or not, you better not end up with your stuff on a person's property.
What was that big story with the hunters from, I think, Minnesota who ran afoul of the Canadian government? I remember it was absolutely nuts, and I shocked I have never written on it.

and bullrushed the poor guy.

Do you think this is why they have the
cows fight in Switzerland. You don't hear of troublesome cows there.

How about these?
http://www.wisconsinsafespace.org/victims.html#woman_shot_walking_dog
A while back, a woman was gardenng in her back yard abutting on some woods, and a hunter shot at the NOISE she was making.
Shoulda stuck with the rototiller.
They found him not guilty.
