Paintball Pranksters Get Gunfire
PITTSBURGH-August 13, 2003 — Two teens who drove around Pittsburgh shooting passers-by with paintball guns were shot with real bullets for apparently targeting the wrong group, police said.
Tracey Smedley, 19, was treated at UPMC Presbyterian hospital's emergency room and released Tuesday, said spokeswoman Jocelyn Uhl. She could not provide a condition for an unidentified 17-year-old.
Smedley, the 17-year-old and an 18-year-old man drove around a city neighborhood armed with paintball guns and wearing helmets and paintball vests, Pittsburgh police Lt. Philip Dacey said.
During their drive, the teens pelted children at a playground and shot at another group down the street, Dacey said.
When the teens turned around to tell the group on the street they were only shooting paintballs, someone returned fire with a gun, peppering the driver's side of the car with more than a dozen bullets, Dacey said.
Smedley was shot in the left arm, while the 17-year-old was hit in the buttocks. The teens then drove themselves to the hospital, Dacey said.

Ylifter, I`m sure you`re thinking the dudes that got shot will file a lawsuit.
I would turn the tables, If I was the gunman with the real bullets.
I`m having nightmares now of shooting an innocent person", "I can`t concentrate on anything". " I can`t even do my job anymore."
I would sue them for a traumatic experience this has caused me.
PS I would`nt really do it I`m just making a defense for when they get sued. lol
I'm gonna venture to say that the "group" they shot and who returned fire were not your average suiable Joe.
I could see it now:
Paintball guys sue the notorius steet gang "The Crips" for medical bills, pain and suffering, and mental anguish.
