Dad shoots son for singing Kenny Chesney song
By Gael Fashingbauer Cooper
Next time you flip through the song choices at a karaoke bar, remember to choose carefully. Your health may depend on it.
William Oller, Sr., 70, was jailed after shooting son William Jr., 50, at a residence in Shingletown, Calif.
According to the police report, on Jan. 26, Oller Jr. had been singing a Kenny Chesney country tune via karaoke when Oller Sr. left the home briefly, saying "I'm gonna shut you up." He returned with a handgun and fired multiple times at his son, striking him in the arm. Oller Jr. was taken to the hospital, but at least one bullet remains in his shoulder. Oller Sr. was also treated for a gunshot wound and then taken to jail.

Funny - i would have called that attempted murder. Pretty sure the DA is going to call it that too...

The fact that this is in the "entertainment" section of MSNBC is enough to show this isn't up to the SoP of the Group. Try "Entertainment" or "Weird News".
