Is it considered irony to be lassoed into submission after shooting into a crowd of innocent bystanders at a church rodeo? We don’t know about all that, but it likely will result in a Georgia man getting deported.
According to UPI, Austell, Georgia, resident Celestino Moras, 25, showed up drunk to a local Bartow County church picnic and rodeo after not being invited to the festivities. Upon arrival, he was asked to leave the event, but instead became irritated and opened fire on the crowd of over 300 people.
Once his pistol ran out of bullets, spectators jumped and beat the intoxicated Moras, who was initially lassoed by one of the rodeo cowboys to prevent him from getting away.
Moras was charged with aggravated assault upon the arrival of law enforcement. Fortunately, only four people were treated for minor injuries. In the meantime, Moras is also currently being investigated for a possible immigration violation.
