Oddly Enough - Reuters

Cousins, Age 70 and 85, Die in Pistol Duel
Add Oddly Enough

MEXICO CITY (Reuters) - Two Mexican peasant farmers, cousins age 70 and 85, argued for years over water rights and finally faced off in an old-fashioned pistol duel that killed both, a judicial official said Wednesday.

Manuel Orozco and Candelario Orozco, who were also brothers-in-law, shot each other dead in the middle of a field Monday night in the western state of Jalisco.

Their bodies were found only 11 feet apart with one fatal bullet wound each and two pistols lying nearby.

Manuel, 70, fired a .45 caliber Colt pistol and his 85-year-old cousin was packing a .22 caliber pistol.

The two men had long debated ownership of a water spring that Candelario used to irrigate a small corn plot near the town of Pihuamo.
 
Hey, at least they were decent shots.... Not too smart, but decent shots.
