When police talked to Newton, he said that about midnight on July 24, a bat had come into his home and "attacked" his wife, the complaint said. Newton said he got his gun and fired several times at the bat, eventually wounding it.

Never bring a gun to a bat attack.

The poor _ets never catch a break. Whether, basketball, football, or baseball, you can count on them to blow it spectacularly.
