The man who mistook his wife for a scumbag

Thinking his home was being invaded by a desperate escapee from Citrus County Jail, a 63-year-old Beverly Hills man squeezed off a shot from his .38 Special early Sunday morning at a bushy haired figure next to his backyard pool.

The bullet found its mark, hitting the target in the arm.

It wasn't until the wounded person screamed that Ralph Contopoulo, 63, realized he had shot his 59-year-old wife, Lyn, according to a report filed by Citrus County Sheriff's Office deputies.
