South African Babanto Chauke, 38, was killed earlier this week by two men who “starting throwing oranges at him until he died,” according to Lt-Col Moatshe Ngoepe, a local police spokesman in Tzaneen, Limpopo.
WOW! Now as an avid orange eater, and the father of a little girl who LOVES her citrus fruit, I know South Africa produces a LOT of oranges. Still I never considered them as a weapon! Were they ripe or in the harder green form? How many oranges did it take to end this man’s life?
Goes to show that those interested in committing murder will be VERY creative when it comes to what weapons they use. Of course those who tout “Gun Death” were happy that the departed didn’t have a gun to defend himself! That would have caused a “Gun Death” which is BAD!
