The headline made me think Chief O'Hara was responsible.

He didn’t know the bat was loaded?

That’s ‘chirrens’ in these parts. Or ‘dindonuffins’, or ‘mybabydonthurtnobody’.

Unless the bat was used against Rahm or Zero it was a bad shoot.

That was my Plan B reply but I am leaning towards the attacker not being a fan of the Ramones. :-)
