Default Grandfather beaten to death with own bat

ouch... on Christmas Day, even...

Beach brawl started over alleged drinks theft
http://www.news.com.au/story/0,23599,22974815-2,00.html

A GRANDFATHER was viciously beaten to death with his own bat while playing beach cricket after he challenged a group of men who were stealing drinks from his cooler.

Thugs pelted William John Rowe with beer bottles and then bashed him with the bat he and his family were using to play beach cricket on Christmas Day.

The brawl between the farmer and another group of Christmas revellers occurred about 9pm on Geraldton beach, north of Perth.

According to police, the 49-year-old father-of-five and his family were playing cricket when they were approached by a group of people.

A verbal dispute took place, with the group leaving the scene only to return later in greater numbers.

It is believed Mr Rowe challenged the men when he caught them taking drinks out his cooler.

"As yet no one has been arrested over the attack and police have made a public plea for witnesses to come forward."


I'm sorry, but if they catch the scumbag, POS, loser, m'fukcers, they should fry them. What purpose do losers like this serve on this planet? Seriously? You take a life in cold blood, you lose yours. End of story. What losers on this planet.

this tidbit should make the Harry's of our board happy: the attackers are reported to be Aboriginal... not white...

I couldn't care less if they were from Uranus. Seriously, this planet is in serious trouble.

Isn't it Racism for the news to report that they were Aboriginal, aren't they supposed to replace the word "Aboriginal" with "Suspect"

Maybe they thought the poor guy was a f-cking Kangaroo
