A man who said he was angered by his son's teenage friends driving up and down his road, spinning their wheels and honking the horn, is charged with fatally shooting one the boys and wounding another, authorities said.

Mellon, 44, fired three shots from a 9mm pistol, hitting Beck in the head. The car rolled 200 yards from the house and into an embankment.

"Speeding up and down a road caused one of (the boys) to lose their life," said Capt. Bobby Steen of the sheriff's office said. "There are a lot of questions that have to be answered. Something had to have happened. Maybe he just wanted to scare them."

What the fuck is this cop doing publicly making excuses for a murderer? When you fire a warning shot to "scare" someone, you don't usually do it by shooting three times and getting two head shots.
