A same-sex couple visiting Minneapolis from out of town were greeted Thursday with more than they could have expected when a bar patron shot both men in the legs with a BB gun.
Last Thursday night, 43-year-old Wayne Steven Odegard arrived at The Saloon, a popular Minneapolis gay bar. Soon after, he began harassing customers and making homophobic comments aimed at a nearby gay couple holding hands, according to Minneapolis news station KMSP-TV.
The situation escalated, and Odegard produced a CO2-powered BB gun, aiming it at customers. Odegard fired the BB gun at another couple, striking the men in their legs, before attempting to run from the scene. Saloon security guard Tyler Erickson took chase, grabbing Odegard only a few yards away from the door, where he called police.
