This is exactly why you bring the bear spray to a wedding. Had someone used it to calm people down after a heated exchange over a groomsman eating meatballs with his hands, perhaps nobody would have been shot.
Love wasn’t the only thing in the air at a Wisconsin wedding last month, bullets were as well. The reception included an unplanned shooting that sent two to the hospital and earned a 41-year-old man two felony charges.
A groomsman had been spotted by a cousin of the bride in the kitchen area “eating meatballs directly with his hand,” reports the local affiliate WISN. She says she told him to use a plate and that he responded by punching her.

It was apparently the type of wedding reception that was a couple of words away from throwing punches. The brother-in-law of the woman who was punched reportedly stepped in and during the exchange gunshots rang out.
The alleged shooter was identified by multiple witnesses, including the bride, as a friend of the meatball-eating groomsman, Thomas Redrick Williams. When officers arrived on the scene, the criminal complaint states that the bride walked up and handed them a key fob.

She had witnessed the fight, she had heard the gunshot, and she had seen a man she knew as “Boog” leave the kitchen with a gun.
How did she get the key fob, and what did it have to do with anything? She had wrestled it away from the man with the gun as he was attempting to drive off. He then fled on foot.

Two other witnesses gave their accounts of the shooting to police. As of last week, reports Law & Crime, police have issued a warrant for Williams’ arrest and were still looking for him.
He’s facing two counts of first-degree reckless injury with a dangerous weapon, possession of a firearm by a convicted felon and bail jumping.
It just goes to show that sometimes asking someone to use a plate instead of their hands to eat meatballs is asking for too much. Who knew? Other than the bride who seemed to be unfazed by the reception shooting.
