Jorge Reyes, a pitcher for Oregon St. and the Most Outstanding Player from last year’s College World Series, was arrested for firing bullets that hit a house and a car. Reyes, teammate John Wallace, and former teammate Anton Maxwell, were shooting soda cans with a rifle in Maxwell’s backyard, obviously unaware that bullets can penetrate things like fences. The stray shots were too close for comfort for student Brian Bodtker.

One of seven students who lives in the house on the other side of the fence, said two of the bullets lodged in an outside wall but one went through his bedroom window. Three more bullets hit a car parked in front of the same window.

“One shot went through my bedroom window, ricocheted off the wall and landed on my bed,” Bodtker told the Gazette-Times.

I guess when you’re the College World Series Most Outstanding Player and you pitch for the two time defending champs, you think you’re above the law.. You think you’re bulletproof.. But you’re not and neither are your neighbors. Now trust me, I understand.. It’s college. People do dumb shit in college. So go flip over a car, pull the fire alarm in the dorms, anything.. Besides accidentally shooting the guy across the street.
