Ohio Motorist Shoots, Kills Man After Tomatoes Are Thrown at His Car in Ohio; No Arrests

The Associated Press

MOUNT HOPE, Ohio Sept. 2 —
A motorist whose car was pelted with tomatoes as he passed a cornfield fired a shotgun into the field, killing a 23-year-old man, authorities said.

Steven L. Keim was with about 10 others, ages 15 to 23, who were hiding in the field Monday night, throwing tomatoes and firing paintball guns at passing cars, the Holmes County Sheriff's office said.

According to the sheriff's department, after the car was struck with tomatoes, the driver stopped, got out and threatened to shoot whoever threw them.

The car continued on, but turned around and drove past again and was struck with tomatoes a second time.

About 25 minutes later, the car traveled past the cornfield two more times. On a third pass, the driver stopped and challenged the group to throw more tomatoes, then fired three to five rounds into the cornfield, striking Keim multiple times.

No suspect had been arrested Tuesday. The incident occurred just north of Mount Hope, about 60 miles south of Cleveland.

As soon as I have kids I am going to start cutting articles like these out of the paper and saving them in a scrapbook. Then when my son becomes a teenager, I am going to make him read one every morning.

Today's lesson would be, "Throw/Shoot crap at cars, and you will piss someone off who will most likely beat you up.....or worse."

Tomorrow's lesson would be the article about the Ohio kid who is now serving 10 years in prison for throwing a hunk of concrete off an overpass and striking a passing motorist in the head crushing his skull.

I remember in fifth grade throwing a single snowball, on a dare, at a dark, quiet road that had to be 50 or 60 yards away. Didn't think there was a chance in hell I'd even throw a snowball that far. But a set of headlights came, and I threw, and just when I figured the snowball had fallen short (it was dark, I couldn't see the snowball for more than a second after I threw it), there was a tremendous thump that sounded like a fastball hitting a 1-piece garage door, then screeching brakes and some guy yelling like hell. My friends were laughing so hard they could barely run away, but I was scared ****less once I thought about what could have happened.

Yeah, more people need to think before they pull "harmless pranks."

OK OK so this on is dumb but here ya go......

Back when i was like 6/7ish my brother and neiborhood friends were out in the field up on a hill acrossed the house from our house F***ing around some one thought it would be a great idea to throw smoke bombs at the passing cars (we always did apples and snow balls) so there we are.

Gawd i remeber it vividly

My brother and the other oldest kid (15/16 is at the time) my brother is the lighter and the other kid the thrower..... then comes the familar call "Car" ......the flick of the lighter then the quick toss......then what no one expected .... the kid that tossed it says "***** ITS A COP"......... Im standing there in shock as i hear the scretching tires then look back to see everyone running so i bolt too (as fast as a 6/7 yr old can trying to keep up with the big kids) well we got away and after doubling back around one of the other kids houses we sit on his porch....we see the COP stuck in the ditch with his front wheels up the hill and his rear tires in the air cause it got stuck on the bumper (that was funny stuff) we then see the COP pile up our bikes that we had left hiden under a tree out in the field ............ Aw crap what we gonna do?
US: excuse me officer what are you doing with our bikes ?

cop: Im inpounding them

us: ah why we just left them there we were playing hide and seek!
cop: well who threw the smoke bomb at my car?

us: not us we saw some bigger kids out here earlier.

cop: BS get in the back of the car

LOL so all 5 of us pack in the back seat of his car he takes all of our info and in the process my parents come home from dinner with my grand parents and see us all there! My Grandpa start yelling take em away throw em in the hooskow!

lol he let us all go after taking us home and telling our parents what we did!

Man was i scare i thought i was gonna lose my bike for sure!

We found that if you get a wad of wet toilet paper, it makes a hell of a sound when it hits the side of a car, but doesn't actually do any damage. We crawled inside a big hedge/landscaping thing and nailed passing cars all night. Some of them stopped but they couldn't see us because we were pretty well camoed.

Another story... we are out in front of my friend's house at night playing wiffle ball. Some guys we know come by in their white Jeep and throw eggs at us. They miss, and come back and miss again. We decide there won't be a third time, so we go in and we all (7 or 8 of us) get eggs. Sure enough here comes the white Jeep with the top down, so we all step out of the bushes and tag it. I'm talking windshield, grille, driver, passenger, NAILED. Except it's the wrong jeep! There was a lot of running and piling into cars after that.

Water balloons, corn, eggs, ahhhhh......the good old days. Used to do that on pretty much a weekly basis. Nothing like getting chased through a cornfield by a pissed-off redneck in a 4x4. That's why so many of today's kids are out of shape, not enough getting chased and stuff.

Did this with snowballs on a mountan road.

Cool thing was, I was with a group of friends one of whom was David, the center on our basketball team and a menacing fellow of 6'5" and 250lbs. in high school.

Well a jeep went by, so we nailed him. He stopped and yelled then went on his way. So when he came back of course we had to do it again. His reaction was a little more ... er..... shall we say angry this time.

So this guy stops his Jeep, jumps out cussing a blue streak and heads right for us.

Just as he reaches the tree David was hiding behind, David steps out and says "You got a problem mister?" Or something to that effect.

Nothing that cme out of that guys mouth for the next 30 seconds resembled English. It was more like "Ablahbabagagerabba".

He composed himself and got back in his Jeep. We were all laughing too hard to do anything for a while.

when I was much younger I drove an icecream truck for a summer. I had an ongoing squirt gun fight with some of the kids on my route, broke up the day and was lots of fun.

also kept a coffee can of ice cold water for the smart-ass teenagers. they stop you and walk up and say "what can I get for a nickle" I dump the can and "you can get wet" take the nickle.

anyway lots of fun. so oneday I take this trainee guy with me, it's a hot day (100+) he's driving, I'm napping and we are at a stop light, just for laughs he shoots some water at this older guy in the car next to us. the guy pulls out a .45 and chases us through a suburb for about an hour or so.

just another example of an argument in manditory pot smoking for some individuals (or more acurately the idiot driving my truck should have his taken away, and the intence individual with the .45 should be required to use at least an 1/8 a week)
