A cautionary tale out of Florida for anyone hosting guests this week or, more to the point, anyone who is a guest: Police say a woman fired a handgun at visitors who wore out their welcome and ended up striking two people in the leg with bullets, reports NBC Miami. Deputies say Alana Annette Savell, 32, of Panama City became annoyed when people who had come over to hang out got too loud after drinking and wouldn't leave, so she grabbed a .22-caliber handgun and began shooting toward their feet, reports WMBB.

"The suspect's boyfriend stated to investigators that he has told his girlfriend that once someone is told to leave their property three times, she is to go get the gun and shoot it at the ground," says a police statement. "If that does not work, she is to shoot people in the leg." One of the guests did indeed get hit in the leg—as did Savell's boyfriend. Savell is charged with aggravated battery with a firearm.
