There are several morals to this story, the most important of which seems to be: Don’t piss off a Mercedes-Benz owner!
DAMN, THAT IS HARSH

Tivarus King was a not atypical jerk teenager in Atlanta. He egged a Mercedes on Halloween. The driver was not appreciative and shot the young man twice. One shot killed him.
The 17-year old shooting victim was confronted by the driver at about 8:00 p.m. on Halloween who fired the ten rounds at him. The egg thrower was taken by ambulance to Grady Memorial Hospital but died in route.
The driver of a car matching the description was taken into custody shortly after the incident, but was later determined to have not been involved.
I grant you that egging a car is not nice and should not be tolerated. I don’t think, however, that it is a capital offense. Mercedes owners might disagree.
