Four teenage pranksters learned the hard way its not nice or very safe to pull a prank on two grumpy old golfers.

The pranksters, whose names have not be released, thought it would be funny to interrupt a golf game using an air horn.

The teens hid in the woods on property not owned by the golf course and sounded the air horn while two golfers teed off on the ninth hole. That is when the two golfers, identified as 71-year-old Ronald Richardson and Donald Nieto also 71-years-old, made their way over to the teens and confronted them. When the pair were unable to get to the teens they attempted to steal one of the teens’ jacket that was laying on ground near the fence that separated the golf course and the woods. When the owner of the jacket went to retrieve it, he was repeatedly hit by the two golfers using poles used to retrieve golf balls.

After one of the boys’ father found out about the incident he went to the golf course to complain and requested that the sheriff be called. The two men were questioned and taken into custody on charges of child abuse.
