Man Fires Shotgun At Wasp's Nest - Shoots Boy In Apartment - Jailed
<snip>

PASADENA, Texas -- A Houston-area man is in jail after police say he blasted a wasp's nest with a 12-gauge shotgun and a stray pellet hit a boy in a nearby apartment.

Romeo Gonzalez was charged with deadly conduct and is being held in the Harris County Jail.

Police say the man fired to break up a wasp's nest hanging from a tree outside his second-floor apartment. A pellet entered a first-floor apartment and hit a five-year-old boy in the thigh.

The boy was hospitalized but is expected to recover.

4. they used to let people purchase cyanide for such eventualities
For some completely unfathomable reason they stopped selling such things to the public.

If you find shooting the hornets' nest impressive, just think what our Shotgun Man could have accomplished with a bag of cyanide pellets!
