SHOGUN! Attempted Murderers Use Appropriately Named Car

If you're going to try and kill someone with an automobile, doing so with a common Astra or a Mondeo is unnecessarily boring. That's why we were so pleased to see that a pair of would-be Scottish killers used the aptly named Mitsubishi SHOGUN (a.k.a. Pajero/Montero). According to reports, a 27-year-old was walking home when the Shogun appeared out of nowhere and attempted to dispatch him with a head-on attack.

Despite the chrome bull bars and the relative maneuverability of the three-door version, the assassins managed only to injure their target. It was as if Sakanoue no Tamuramaro was attempting to crush the tribes of Tohoku... except a lot less successfully. We just hope that the victim responds with an Aztec attack.
