Candidate for Darwin Awards Honorable Mention

Post by JJVP »

A man who tried to shoot a squirrel for dinner by taping a .40-caliber cartridge to a BB gun was hospitalized with shrapnel wounds after the cartridge exploded, Gainesville police reported.
Lloyd told police he knew he was not allowed to possess ammunition and that he found cartridges while “scrapping” — looking for scrap metal.
Guess we've been looking for ammo in all the wrong places. "rlol"

I'm assuming he taped it to the end of the barrel? What a dummy.
