A man who reportedly told police he was trying to deter a friend from driving drunk by blasting the friend's windshield with paintballs wound up in jail.
According to Kennewick, Washington, police Sgt. Ken Lattin: "This is a very creative way to prevent someone from drinking and driving, but not legal or safe."
Responding Tuesday night to a nearby resident's report of a man shooting paintballs at a car, police found the 41-year-old man, who explained his rationale.
The man was arrested and booked into the Benton County jail for investigation of unlawfully discharging a weapon and an unrelated misdemeanor warrant.
Lattin suggested a designated driver would be a better approach.
