Durham Residents Threaten Speeders With Paintbal Guns
WRAL reports that a group of Durham residents are so angry about people speeding through they neighborhood they have posted signs warning that speeders will be blasted with paintball guns.
The group, Angry Neighbors With Paintball Guns, posted signs at strategic locations throughout the city, warning motorists to slow down or risk being shot at with a paintball gun.
The group does not say if the signs are meant to serve only as an attention-grabber or if it plans to shoot paintballs at vehicles.
Kammie Michael, a Durham police spokeswoman, said it is a crime to shoot a paintball at a vehicle. However, the Durham police have increased patrols in the problem areas which should prevent some of the speeding.
