A home made spud gun in the laundry of the 19-year-old man’s residence, which was allegedly the weapon used to shot at the tree.
Oh lord...

HOW DO I SHOT TREE?


On a more serious note, cannons are seen as firearms in Australia. Of course this could happen.

It could well be. I think he's 19, he lives in Perth, and he has his penchant for cannabis.

Fits so far...

Wow What a complete waste of time.....I sapose the cops are all sitting behind the cop shop trying out the evidence... get stoned and shoot potatos.... i sapose theyll add the charge of envoromental vandalisum to the wrap..... F@#KING idiots.
But in all fairness if he haddent had the dope there they wouldnt have given a rats about the cannon. But then again cops are idiots.

I wonder if it would had be more persecuted by the law if his gun was pneumatic... they had the same power but make a pretty strange sound
compared to the lound BANG of the combustion.

Well, the only bad part in Australia is that spudguns are illegal, so yea they got him on a unregistered firearm because they takes combustion spud guns (and pneumatic i guess) as firearms.

Well, when i read the article and saw the word cannabis, i immediately thought of watto, after seeing that this is a Australian news paper and that watto makes spud guns, so i am worried that its him and i hope its not.

What's with all the hostility towards the cops, guys? They didn't make this idiot smoke dope and shoot a potato. This is HIS fault. Not the cops. It's people like this who make all of us look bad.

We don't know, it's not that likely - there may be other 19 year old (actually, I'm not entirely sure of Watto's age, I think it's either 19 or 20) weed smoking spudders in Perth, but it's still possible.
