Man Shoots Lawn Mower

Okay, this is just ridiculous! I saw this on the news this morning and had to share....can we say "Stupid Criminal!"?


Here's a link with the story to follow:


A Milwaukee man was accused of shooting his lawn mower because it wouldn't start. Keith Walendowski, 56, was charged with felony possession of a short-barreled shotgun or rifle and misdemeanor disorderly conduct while armed.

According to the criminal complaint, Walendowski said he was angry because his Lawn Boy wouldn't start Wednesday morning. He told police quote, "I can do that, it's my lawn mower and my yard so I can shoot it if I want."

A woman who lives at Walendowski's house reported the incident. She said he was intoxicated.

Walendowski could face up to an $11,000 fine and six years and three months in prison if convicted.

A call to Walendowski's home went unanswered Friday morning.

ok...that's just funny! I have felt like doing that a few times! Although it's usually when I have a migraine & the neighbor decides that his lawn needs mowing!
