[Crime] Wis. man attempts drive-by shooting, forgets to roll down car window

[The Helper]

The suspect in a drive-by shooting failed to open his own car window before he shot, with the broken window ultimately leading to his arrest.

Andrew J. Burwitz, 20, 45 Diane Lane, Appleton, was charged Wednesday in Outagamie County Court with four counts of first- degree reckless endangerment, four counts of endangering safety by reckless use of a firearm, disorderly conduct and criminal damage to property and placed on a $25,000 cash bond.

A preliminary hearing is set for Nov. 11.

Burwitz is suspected of shooting at two residences, his ex-girlfriend's house on Meadowbreeze Court in the Town of Buchanan and another house, apparently chosen at random, on South Tahoe Court in Appleton, in Calumet County.

According to court documents, the occupants of the house in the Town of Buchanan were awakened about 2 a.m. Monday to the sounds of breaking glass.

I think thats number two on the directions list for drive by shootings,

1) drive by
2) roll down window...

I think this man needs an award.

Not a good award, but an award none the less. Doing something that stupid takes talent.

I understand why the girl is an ex... Sheer stupidity probably didn't help their relationship

We aren't accustomed to drive-by shootings.
