Tenn. teen shot in behind over sagging pants
http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/39523336/ns/us_news-weird_news/

MEMPHIS, Tenn. — Police say a 45-year-old Memphis man angry over two teens' sagging pants shot one in the buttocks during an argument. He faces aggravated assault charges.


But the funniest part about this is the headline inserted half-way down the page:

Story: Man denies crack in buttocks is his

1. They consolidated their stories promoting racial stereotypes.
How convenient.

2. LOL!
More for the crack than for the attack on the clueless. How does one ignore something that mysteriously appeared in such an intimate place.

3. Aggravated assault? Is that synonomous with 'attempted murder'?
Because unless this was a pellet gun, it seems to me that firing a gun at someone and even hitting them falls into the trying-to-kill category... :shrug:
