In other news, some guy (pictured left) went to the hospital thinking he'd been shot in the head, but really, he'd only been hit by a bottle of water.

According to a criminal complaint:

Police were called Thursday night after the man went to Aurora Sheboygan Memorial Medical Center with what he said was a gunshot wound to the head. He told police his sister or her friend shot him with a small gun.

He was incorrect.
