This is two stories that I'm lumping together. They are sorta related in that they occured at a Wal-Mart store, and they involve young people being total asshats.
1.) TODAY: A lady heads back to the sporting goods ailse to purchase one of those new pellet guns for her son. They're clear and look really funky at a glance, but apparently they shoot rather good.
Junior is given his first gun, which he can't wait to have fun with. The mother sends him outside to wait on her while she gets her nails done; leaving the little precious to his own devices.
Not long after this, Precious decides to play with his new gun, opens the packaging, loads it, and then starts shooting at random parked cars. When that stops being fun, he goes for a moving target. No, he didn't shoot another car. This kid shot an old lady that was in a wheelchair.
Big mistake that. Someone had witnessed the incident and took off after Precious, nearly tackling the boy to the ground. Precious soon finds that he's got some nice heavy bracelets on his hands. In short, a cop had witnessed the incident.
You know that mother had the gall to say "Ah, it's just a toy." to the officer? I suspect, Precious is going to have a bad week, since the officer didn't look amused and I overheard that the lady was pressing charges.
2.) Batteries...battery, Ah heck. Beat the snot out of em...(months ago)
Teenagers, when bored and left to their own devices, will very often find themselves asking the question "Should I, or shouldn't I?" IN every case, the answer should be "I shouldn't" but that doesn't stop some from doing it anyway.
Case in point, two boys decide to have a battery fight (throwing the heavy C cells at each other) in the middle of the store when no one is looking. The authority figure (father) even gets in on the act at one point. This goes over well enough, and when their family starts to leave they do too. They are met at the door by police and Wal-Mart loss prevention.
Bit of advice here:
When faced with a burly police officer and a Wal-Mart associate who is telling you to come with them so they can "talk" to you, don't answer your cell phone and bitch about how they're harrassing you. This is not only a bad idea, but in some countries, grounds to beat you to a pulp.

The cop watching it unfold probably could have shot him DEAD just like any other person going around with a GUN shooting people!
