Police for now are not sure whether to classify the 62 year-old Khabarovsk resident's actions as self-defense or murder
Sixty-two year old Viktor Shakalov had gone to walk the dog and left he door to his apartment unlocked. When he returned, he saw that someone was rummaging through his apartment. Catching this thief in the act, the retiree was downright angry. The thief, however, decided that the best defense was an attack, and jumped the apartment owner. In reply, the retiree applied a beating with a sack which was laying nearby, containing a summer squash. And overdid it: he stopped only after the thief ceased moving. Just in case, Shakalov tied up the man who lay motionless on the floor, and only afterwards did he call for an ambulance and the police. The thief died sometime before the arrival of the doctors.

An SAS squash?
Seems I was right when I told my mom (as a child) that squash was deadly.
I always keep a root vegetable handy. You never know what's going to turnip.
Ban all assault vegetables!
When squash is outlawed...
If squash are outlawed...only outlaws will have squash!
He should have eaten the evidence.
Chicago residence should take note. Because that's what they are left with, squash, in order to defend themselves and their property.
'I was cleaning the squash and he wanted to see it...it just went off...I didn't know it was loaded...!"
Oh man....he gourd him.
"Free the Khabarovsk One!"
Next, we'll see Kerry and Edwards in camouflage, pretending to sling squash!
Yeah, clearly having the burglar's word would change everything. Is this guy some liberal Democrat who escaped from New York? ;)
I have a new tagline. (see below)

Gourds don't kill people...
"...containing a summer squash...:
Looks like an acorn squash to me.
