Teed-off Nevada man shoots golfer who broke his window

[quote](Reuters) - An angry homeowner apparently had better aim than a Nevada golfer whose errant ball broke the window of a home that overlooks the course.
Jeff Fleming, 53, of Reno is accused of opening fire with a shotgun on a golfing twosome, hitting one man who was treated at a hospital and released, police said on Friday.
Fleming was taken into custody at a local attorney's office where he fled following the shooting, Reno police said in a statement.
Fleming was booked into the Washoe County jail on suspicion of battery and assault with a deadly weapon late on Thursday and later released on bail.
Police say he opened fire at the 16th hole of Reno's Lakeridge Golf Course after one of the golfers shattered a window of his house with a ball. Fleming, whose home overlooks the course, had a verbal argument with the golfers before the shooting, police said.
Authorities shut down and evacuated the course after the shooting. Witness accounts led officers to Fleming's residence, which they surrounded before he surrendered at the attorney's office.
A telephone message left for the general manager of the public golf course was not immediately returned on Friday.[/quote]

Ha, TEED off, golf puns.
He broke my window so I broke his spine. Seems fair enough.
That's what you get for having a house next to a golf course you dumb dummy.
I used to live near the area, if it's the part of the course I'm thinking of somebody would really need to fuck up when hitting their ball to break the guy's window.

I guess he was lacking foresight to buy a house there.

At least he wouldn't have drive far to get onto the golf course.

Heyo!
If you lived near a golf course surely the wisest option would be to buy reinforced windows.
Some people really shouldn't have guns...

Also as everyone is saying, reinforced windows would be good.
Lol the funny thing being if he had a house on a golf course, the mook should've had bullet-resistant glass!
