This happened in England, not Florida?!
The video is at the top of the page.I'm disappointed in the lack of video clip. Now i'm going to have to scour the interwebs for it.
They treated it like a toy. It was pretty apparent from the initial reaction they didn't realize how much damage a pellet would do. I believe they expected a sting and an "ow" and not a bloody mess.
On a side note, this is now proof that a .22 air rifle is a sufficient self defense gun. She stopped holding the cigarette, so that's a one stop shot. Also nobody has volunteered to be shot with one.
