Father Shoots Son at Middle School Football Game
This report comes from Midvale, Utah of all places. A parent was spotted on the roof of the middle school during a football game. An officer saw him on the roof top walking around, pacing back and forth. The man was carrying what looked like a rifle. SWAT was called in and the field was evacuated. One witness reports hearing someone shouting, "Shooting! Shooting!". He didn't believe them until he saw SWAT following the man on the roof through the scopes on their rifles. The man jumped off the roof and ran when police officers pursued him. He later stated that he didn't think they were police. Why was he up there? To shoot video of his son's game. He was ticketed for trespassing and the rifle looking item, a lawn chair, was seized for evidence. No trigger has been found and apparently police are unable to determine the caliber of bullets required.

Classic. Just classic.
Ches has been on the roof of the press box at football games to shoot the band. Nothing happened to him. Yet. We'll see during his next high school band gig.

You don't live in Utah. I don't think you have much to worry about.
Well with all of the bad stuff going on I can see police being jumpy as hell! Making a threat assessment that quick though is probably not a good idea. I have also heard of Automatic 30 calibre lawnchairs....
