Pals Took Turns Shooting Each Other - Arkansas Nitwits
Just two guys testing out a bullet-proof vest and, yes, booze was involved. I guess this proves that Florida man (men) have competition in the good ole' South.
"Two Arkansas men took turns shooting one another while wearing a bulletproof vest, according to police who arrested the pair for felony assault.
As detailed in a probable cause affidavit, Charles Ferris, 50, and Christopher Hicks, 36, were drinking Sunday night on the back deck of Ferriss residence when they came up the bright idea to shoot themselves.
Ferris, who was wearing a bulletproof vest, told Hicks to shoot him, according to the affidavit. Hicks obliged, firing a single round from a .22 caliber rifle into Ferriss chest. While the vest stopped the bullet, Ferris was left with a painful welt on his chest.
Hicks then donned the vest.
Ferris, who would later tell cops that he was pissed about being shot, confessed that he unloaded the clip into Hickss back. None of the five rounds penetrated the protective vest, investigators noted, but Hicks was bruised from them hitting him"
And the article goes on about them and their efforts to explain to the cops what they were doing - Funny, sad and disturbing
