In the “you can’t make this ish up…but seems like a made up story I’ve heard before, two men from Arkansas have been arrested for shooting each other with a .22 caliber rifle while wearing a bullet proof vest. These two Darwin award winning geniuses, Charles Eugene Ferris, 50, and Christopher Hicks, 36, were arrested Monday in connection with an aggravated assault. When police arrived at the hospital to investigate the report of a man that had been shot multiple times while wearing a bullet-proof vest. An officer interviewed Mr. Ferris, who had a red mark on his chest, the story the officer got from Mr. Ferris was like something out of a t.v. show. He told the cops that “someone from the edge of a tree line began shooting at him and the “asset” on Highway 12.” But after a while, Mr. Ferris changed his story. He didn’t want to get his buddy in trouble, but you see..what had happened was the two were sitting out on Ferris’ back deck drinking beer…. when Ferris had the bright idea to get Hicks to shoot him with a .22 rifle while he was wearing a bullet-proof vest. Hicks shot Ferris with a .22 caliber semi-automatic rifle, according to the affidavit. The bullet hit the top left corner of the vest stopping the bullet but leaving a red mark. Ferris told police he was “pissed” and Hicks put the vest on, the affidavit states. Ferris then “unloaded the clip into Hicks’ back,” according to a police report. Brilliant!
