Things that suck: Bobbing and entering

This really sounds like something our friend Bob would do. Let's hope for his new baby's sake that Bob takes a hike long before this happens!

RANCHO CUCAMONGA, Calif. --An intoxicated man who was shot to death last week in an apartment mistook a neighbor's unit for his own and broke in when his key wouldn't work, authorities said.

...Soto was "fairly well intoxicated" when his friends drove him home early Friday, said San Bernardino County Sheriff's Sgt. Tom Bradford. All the buildings in the complex look the same, he said.

Soto got into the wrong apartment through an open front window and headed to the bathroom, where he encountered the resident, a 65-year-old state prison counselor, authorities said.

They scuffled and the resident, thinking Soto was an intruder, shot him once. The shooter will not be charged, Bradford said.

"It's tragic. A real mess," he said. "I don't believe Soto intended to hurt anybody.
I'm guessing, from his perspective, he thought some dude was in his house with a gun! Que lastima. I have a feeling Bob would have won that fight if it were him, anyway. Bob smash.
