Hey, we all get a little cranky when we run out of OJ.

This is one of those delightful stories where the headline offers you something and then the story delivers exactly what you hoped it would.

Eldridge Dukes, 58, and his son were fighting about the lack of orange juice in their north Baton Rouge home, according to a Baton Rouge police arrest report.

The squabble escalated when the victim broke a porcelain vase, and Dukes grabbed his .357 caliber handgun, family members told detectives.

Dukes chased the victim out of the house and down the street, firing at least three times. He hit the victim once in the buttocks, detectives said.

The victim was taken to Baton Rouge General Mid-City Hospital with non-life-threatening injuries, the report says.

 

Listen, I know this seems bad. And I know this individual seems unstable. But if you think this is bad, you should see what happens when someone brings home OJ with pulp instead of without. It involves an electrical tape, 7 clothespins, and a blowtorch.
