Armadillo 1 - Hunter 0

Talk about instant karma… A Texas man was airlifted to a nearby hospital around 3 a.m. local time thursday morning after being struck by his own bullet.

Cass County Sheriff Larry Rowe said the man went outside his house in Marietta, spotted the armadillo on his property and began taking shots at it.

“His wife was in the house. He went outside and took his .38 revolver and shot three times at the armadillo,” Rowe said.

The man fired three times, of which at least on was deflected by the animal’s rock hard shell, which then struck the man in the jaw.

He was taken to the hospital to have his jaw wired shut. The status of the animal is unknown.

“We didn’t find the armadillo,” the sheriff said.

 

Sounds like the dude went outside to shoot at it while drunk in the middle of the night.    I didn't realize Armadillo shells were hard enough to deflect a bullet though.

Probably was shooting at a rock, sounds stupid enough to do it Phone Post 3.0

That's crazy. I am not a fan of killing animals but these fuckers will destroy your entire property.

Thing is I've taken them out with everything from a PELLET gun to a .45 and they go down. They have a bit of run to them after the initial shot but that's it.

I have a hard time believing this guy had a ricochet from a 38.

Yeah, I'm thinking King Mo might be right, dumbass probably shot at a rock and he blamed it on an armadillo
