For those that remember that CSI episode where a man shoots guy in a fur suit and claims (IIRC), "I thought it was a coyote.", here is one for you, from KYW 1060 News Radio, in Philly: http://philadelphia.cbslocal.com/2012/10/21/police-costumed-pa-girl-mistaken-for-skunk-shot-by-relative/
Police: Costumed PA Girl Mistaken For Skunk, Shot By Relative


FREEDOM, Pa. (AP) — Police say a costumed 9-year-old girl was accidentally shot outside a western Pennsylvania home during a Halloween party by a relative who thought she was a skunk.

New Sewickley Township police say the girl was over a hillside and wearing a black costume and a black hat with a white tassel. Chief Ronald Leindecker says a male relative mistook her for a skunk and fired a shotgun, hitting her in the shoulder Saturday night.

Leindecker tells the Beaver County Times (http://bit.ly/QzCkxj ) that the girl was alert and talking when she was flown to a hospital in Pittsburgh, about 30 miles away. Her condition was unavailable.

Leindecker says the man hadn’t been drinking and he doesn’t know whether charges will be filed.

I don't know, it sure does sound like alcohol was involved. He must have thought that was the biggest damn skunk he ever saw!

It was night. The girl was dressed in black with a black hat that had a white tassle.

I guess the guy just saw her head moving.

He is stupid for shooting a gun when a kid's party was going on though.

Actually, if it HAD been a skunk, that would have ended the party fast. (And probably used up all the tomato juice within a five mile radius)

He was stupid for shooting without being actually certain of his target. Dumbass.

Oh CSI Fur and loathing - television's single most grevious harm to the furry community.

Oh my goodness... there is actually a place called Beaver County?!
