Philadelphia, PA

From NBC Philadelphia:

The man was with his wife on the 700 block of S. 2nd Street shortly after 8:30 p.m. Tuesday when they walked past a 21-year-old man and a 20-year-old man. The wife told police one of the men asked her husband, "What are you looking at?" to which her husband replied, "What are you looking at?" The wife said both men then punched her husband and threw him to the ground and continued to beat him.

Two other witnesses also told police they heard the commotion, looked out their window and saw the two men beating the 65-year-old. Another witness who was walking by at the time told police the two men were standing over the 65-year-old and repeatedly kicking him.

The 65-year-old man took out a .45 caliber pistol and opened fire striking the 21-year-old in the shoulder and the 20-year-old in the stomach. The two men were taken to Jefferson Hospital where they are both in stable condition.

The answer to the question turned out to be, "Someone too thuggish and stupid to stay out of the hospital."
