12/04/2006

A St. Louis man was shot to death Sunday night over a warm beer, police said.

St. Louis police say a woman shot her husband, who was about 70 years old, four to five times in the chest after he tried giving her a warm can of Stag beer.

Police said the wife admitted shooting him about 5:40 p.m. in the kitchen of their home in the 5100 block of Terry Avenue. Police said the home had no electricity at the time.

Homicide detectives would not identify the man. The woman, whom police also did not identify, was taken into custody.

I suppose it is hard to keep beer cold when you don't have electricity.

 

ironic ehh?......

 

If you drink a porter or a stout, it's better warm. That could have been usefull information.

 

But..the power was out cause there was about 10" of snow and ice on the ground....

 

A woman killing a man over a beer? If she was so concerned with it, she should have gotten her fat azz of the couch herself and set them on the porch. They would have been cold in no time.

 

what if he had served cold coffee?

 

Take about overkill (no pun intended )
