    Wayne Newton tells Las Vegas jury he fired shot as burglars fled

    Longtime Las Vegas entertainer Wayne Newton told a Nevada jury on Tuesday that he fired a gunshot to scare away two burglars that he and his wife and their teenage daughter encountered during a second burglary in 10 days at their home a year ago.

    "My wife was in hysterics and crying," Newton said, adding that Kathleen McCrone Newton told him one of the fleeing men raised a tire iron as if to hit her before he used the metal rod to attack one of the family's large Rhodesian Ridgeback dogs.

    "She said, 'Shoot 'em. Shoot 'em. There they are. He almost hit me with the pipe iron,'" the 77-year-old "Danke Schoen" singer said. "I decided to take one shot in the air. That was the last time I saw them."
    The Newtons escaped injury. Their dogs were treated by a veterinarian for head injuries and broken teeth.
    Martin was convicted of two unrelated previous burglary-related felonies in 2015 and is currently serving up to six years in prison for violating probation and being a felon in possession of a gun.

    When Ferris Bueller was lip syncing this in the parade (my first memory of this song) I thought it was strange he was performing a song that a girl was singing.

    And the road rage continues in Atlanta, with an off-duty deputy from South Carolina being involved.

    Allentown shooting: 10 wounded outside nightclub in likely gang violence

    Clubgoers were leaving the troubled Deja Vu nightclub on Hamilton Street in Allentown on a rather slow night early Thursday when at least three gunmen opened fire in a gang-related hit attempt outside, leaving 10 people wounded in one of the worst mass shootings in Lehigh Valley history.

    Police and medical officials would not describe the severity of those injured, only saying all 10 are expected to survive and many remain hospitalized. Witnesses reported hearing several gunshots, people running away in a panic and a vehicle speeding away.

    . . .

    The mass shooting angered state and local politicians who called for quicker action to shut down “nuisance” establishments ― Deja Vu has been the scene of several acts of violence, including two other shootings this year ― and for stricter gun control legislation.

    Five blocks from my office and where I buy my heroin when I don’t want to pay full retail but luckily the kids were home for a visit so I didn’t stop by there last night for my usual 1:00 am drink.

    This highlights the need for laws prohibiting shooting people, prohibiting gang bangers from buying guns and from being issued carry permits, and requiring proper training for gang bangers who own guns in defiance of the law.

    It sounds like they are very progressive in Allentown. They now seem to be banning people from standing around unarmed in places where unarmed people standing around are more likely to be shot.
