This guy was shot by police during a burglary July 1, 2023, went to prison and got out Sep 2025.

This morning July 2, he broke into the same gas station and was shot by Dorchester County deputy and later died at the hospital. He was carrying a glass bottle shaped like a revolver that was painted black.

I wonder what Pontificator would say about this?

Pontificator would have wise words for this scenario.

I think this is called a Darwin Award.

Probably say better marksmanship the first time would have prevented this.

Ponti probably would have agreed that the guy won himself a Darwin award.......
