RIVER FALLS, Wis. - Police in Wisconsin said a manager at a cookie factory is facing charges after a shot he took at birds in the rafters missed and hit an employee. River Falls police said the 29-year-old manager at the Best Maid factory was firing birdshot at the birds in the rafters of the factory Dec. 14 and a poorly aimed shot struck a 28-year-old employee in the back of the head, the River Falls Journal reported Thursday. Investigators said the victim felt a sensation like a bee sting and removed a small piece of lead from above his ear. The manager is believed not to have realized the shot struck the employee. The manager, whose name was not released, is now facing a charge of injury by negligent handling of a dangerous weapon, police said.
