Police: Man Pulls Gun After Oatmeal Prank
Wis. Police Say Man Pulls Gun on His Friends After Oatmeal Prank

The Associated Press

LA CROSSE, Wis. - A 20-year-old man who awoke after a party to find himself covered in syrup and dry oatmeal is the one facing a criminal charge after authorities say he turned a gun on the man who admitted pulling the prank.

Witnesses told police they were just trying to "get even" with Travis Maassen for pranks he had pulled in the past few days, according to a criminal complaint.

But Maassen "freaked out," emerging from a bedroom Friday with a .22 caliber bolt-action rifle the complaint said. One man tackled Maassen after having the gun pointed at his head, the complaint said.

Maassen was charged with second-degree recklessly endangering safety while armed. He's on probation for carrying a concealed .25 caliber handgun, the complaint said.

La Crosse County Circuit Judge Ramona Gonzalez ordered Maassen held on a $5,000 cash bond Monday.

I think if it was somebody here they'd have had more in their arsenal than a 22 bolt action rifle and a 25 auto pistol.

You're right! It would have been a high cap 10/22 semi auto children killer and a armor vest piercing .38cal
