LOUISVILLE, Ky. -- A man faces multiple charges after police say he shot a single-barrel shotgun into the air with children in the area.

Police say 54-year-old Donald Hill was angry because someone had broken into his car Friday and stolen his money, so he decided to fire shots into the air. Children were walking on the other side of the street, in the area where shotgun pellets could have fallen.

According to the report, Hill was very intoxicated and brass knuckles and a double-bladed knife were found in his right front pocket.

Hill is charged with wanton endangerment and carrying a concealed weapon.

He placed a stack of hundred dollar bills on his dash and sat up with that shotgun for a full night and day just waiting.......lol

The guy's a first class moron, and he'll undoubtedly deserve what he gets.

But "children were walking on the other side of the street, in the area where shotgun pellets could have fallen"?

Shotgun pellets falling from the sky are just about harmless.

that was my first thought as well. Friends and i many times while hunting doves would shoot up in the air just to pepper each other for fun, doesnt hurt one bit.
