Man Accidentally Shoots Mother-in-law After Bullet Bounces Off Armadillo

Mother in-laws, please beware! News yesterday has it that a man went to burgle a supermarket where his mother in-laws works. Like that was not bad news enough, today a man accidentally shot his mother-in-law after the bullet bounced off an armadillo, say police. Larry McElroy, 54, fired his 9mm pistol at the animal in Lee County, Georgia, US.  

It killed the armadillo – but the bullet ricocheted off its armour, hit a fence, went through the back door of Carol Johnson’s caravan and struck her in the back.

According to a police report, McElroy was about 100 yards away from the home at the time. The 74-year-old was taken to the hospital and is expected to make a good recovery.
