A Florida man wearing an FBI costume may face felony charges after he allegedly shot the owner of a haunted house with a BB gun when he thought the man was actually a frightening prop.

On Halloween, a 47-year-old man who turned his home into a haunted house for people to enjoy without cost was visited by a 20-year-old man dressed as an FBI agent. The man was also reportedly wearing a bulletproof vest and carrying a BB gun that looked similar to a Glock handgun when he entered the attraction.

It was reported that the man wandered through the home, and after turning a corner, he came across the homeowner, who was in costume, but not performing at the time. The 20-year-old allegedly grabbed the BB gun and reportedly hit the man in the eye with the handle.

A Florida man is suspected of constructing a contraption meant to cause injury by delivering a shock, and attaching it to the front door in an attempt to electrocute his wife who is currently with child.

On Tuesday, 32-year-old Michael Wilson, who is separated from his wife, allegedly told her that she should not use the garage door to enter her home because it was malfunctioning. He was also said to have made comments that involved keeping children from touching the front door. This alarmed his father-in-law and the authorities were notified about the questionable proclamation.

Flagler County Sheriff’s Department dispatched deputies to the house in order to investigate the situation, and they noticed charring near the handle of the door, and the door looked as if it was blocked off. They decided to enter the premises by kicking the door which reportedly threw a spark upon impact.
