Southern Beale's Report
Here's my favorite
A man suffered non-life-threatening injuries about 4:30 p.m. Friday when he was struck by flying metal after shooting at a lawn mower, sheriff's Deputy John Stills said in a report.
Jerry Holt, 70, of 156 Troy Morelock Lane, told deputies that he shot himself with a .22 caliber rifle.
"He states he needed to put a hole in a lawn mower blade and he shot the blade with the rifle," the report said.
Metal from the blade "hit both legs and scratched his forehead," the report said.
