Teens accused of shooting deputy's car, others with pellet gun
PLEASANT HILL, Ore. - Two teens face accusations they shot a pellet gun at passing cars Saturday night - including the first sheriff's patrol car to arrive on scene.
The two youths - a 14-year-old from Pleasant Hill and a 15-year-old from Coburg - were cited and released to their parents. The Lane County Sheriff's Office said the two face multiple counts of reckless endangering and criminal mischief.
The sheriff's office got a report of projectiles hitting cars on Cloverdale Road just after 8:20 p.m. Saturday. When the first deputy responded to the scene, his vehicle was also struck by a pellet, the sheriff's office said.
Three motorists reported damage to their vehicles, including a rear side window of a car with two small children seated in the backseat.
No injuries or traffic accidents were reporting in connection to the incident.
Not too bright there McFly.
Paintball guns are next.
Future gang members if the parents had their way.
pellet guns + property damage = priceless
the gift that just keeps giving - good choice mom and dad!

I saw Chevy Chase pull a pellet gun on John Candy at Wally's World (AKA Magic Mountain). Those projectiles are no toy ammo. We used to amp them up so they could shoot through incense cedar 1X4s. We lost interest after we got our .22s.
 BB & pellet guns are illegal in Japan. They violate the swords and firearms law of up to 10 years max...as it should be. Even wrist rocket sling shots are no where to be found. In fact, I had a 90mph fastball at 16, so when I arrived to the Japanese country side in my 20s, I was near to scoring a few fat wild pheasant (kiji) with a few well choosn rocks and got a shake down/warning by the farmers and the keystone cops for it. Any projectile or blade (even a fork) can get you put away for 10 years w/o even hurting anyone or anything.
Now, if only we could get rid of those 54 nukes on the most earthquake prone country on the planet earth.
Yet another example of how pellet guns aren't toys. I often see reports of them being used to threaten, rob, injure, and yes, even kill, people, or to terrorize as in this case. Â I agree with "UsaidWHAT" -- time to take a sledge hammer to the guns.
Cited and released...just to do it again because there was no real punishment. Good job, Lame County!
Kids and pellet guns are a bad mix. Two of my friends had them when I was a kid. They shot out windshields, and windows all over our block.
Great Christmas presents!!! Now take them out and make them take a sledge hammer to them! Then make them work (hard) for the money it is going to cost the parents for the damage they have done.
OK my solution is to take so called teens and have them bend over and SHOOT them in the Arse and that might make them think twice about pointing a weapon at people or cars...Then sue the Shat out of the so called parents !
