71 Year Old Indiana Man Pistol Whips Friend Over Bruno Mars Song

I always knew Bruno had the hits but this guy took it literally! For some reason the song blame it on the a-a-a-a-ALCOHOL comes to mind.


FOX 5 SAN DIEGO — An Indiana man was arrested for battery and criminal recklessness after an argument over whether a song was by Bruno Mars led to him hitting a friend in the face with a pistol and the weapon firing.

Roger [Last Name Withheld], 71, was charged with battery with injury and criminal recklessness with a deadly weapon, both Level 6 felonies.

According to a Johnson County Sheriff’s Department report, Roger and two other friends broke out in an argument late Friday night over whether a song was performed by Bruno Mars. The victim said Washburn then pulled out a .38 revolver and struck him in the forearm and right cheek.

The revolver reportedly went off when it made contact with the victim’s face, but no one was hit. The victim left and reported the incident to police a few hours later.

According to the police report, the victim had “a small gouge on his right cheek, blood on his pants, shirt and a red abrasion on his right forearm.” The victim did not seek medical attention.

When confronted by police, Roger allegedly admitted to striking his friend with the pistol after the argument over the unknown song.

Hustlers, what would you have done?
