He should have bought a Toro!

It just wasn't Keith Walendowski's day.

After having a few drinks before 9:30 a.m. Wednesday, he noticed his grass was overgrown.

So he tried to fire up his 21-inch Lawn-Boy.

Nothing doing. It wouldn't start.

He did what any 57-year-old southside Milwaukee native would do. He pulled out his sawed-off shotgun and blew the mower away.

"I'll tell you the truth," a criminal complaint quotes an apparently inebriated Keith Walendowski. "I got p----- because my lawn mower wouldn't start, so I got my shotgun and shot it. I can do that. It's my lawn mower and my yard, so I can shoot it if I want."

But the police weren't having any part of it.

(Story continues below)

Walendowski was charged with a felony count of possessing a short-barreled shotgun and a misdemeanor count of disorderly conduct while armed. If convicted of both charges, he faces up to six years and nine months in prison.

After shooting the mower, he went in his basement, where he was arrested by police, the complaint says.

Police recovered the shotgun, shells, a handgun, rounds for the handgun and a stun gun.

Dick Wagner of Wagner's Garden Mart told the Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel shooting the mower didn't help Walendowski's chances of getting it repaired.

"Anything not factory recommended would void the warranty," he said.

"No matter what the cause."

I think this guy displayed poor decision making skills on several levels.

Though this thread is better with the mugshot.

Arrggh! I always forget to check those lounge lizards before I post.

If this guy would have poured a gallon of gas over the lawn mower and tossed a match what would have happened?

So...if he hadn't used a sawed-off shotgun he wouldn't have gotten in nearly as much trouble.

+1 on the Toro mowers. I used to talk shit on anything but briggs and stratton but I have used a Toro for the past year and I am very impressed.
