A 21 year old man with paintball gun out for a little fun on Halloween in Chicago is currently in the hospital after being shot in the shoulder by an unidentified shooter who apparently didn't approve of the prank.
"My face was bleeding. I didn't know if I had gotten shot with a real gun," Tappler said. "He didn't care who he was shooting ... He didn't know me, I didn't now him."
Police say the 21-year-old man's prank went too far when one of his victims retaliated by firing back with a real gun in the 7800 block of South Emerald Avenue. He was shot through the shoulder and is listed in stable condition.
His alleged accomplice in the paintball shootings, 39-year-old Jason Wells, was charged with one misdemeanor count of possession/discharging of an air rifle, a misdemeanor.
Police are still looking for the gunman who shot the paintball shooter.
