A man in Pennsylvania who recreates firearms from past wars accidentally shot a two-pound cannonball through the wall of his neighbor’s house. Wlliam Maser is a 54 year old man who lives in Georges Township and has never previously shot cannonballs at any of his neighbors.
State police will charge Maser with criminal mischief, reckless endangerment, and disorderly conduct.
No one answered the phone Friday at Maser’s home. He told WPXI-TV recreating 19th century cannons is a longtime hobby. He said he will stop shooting cannons on his property, about 35 miles southeast of Pittsburgh.
