Before passing out drunk in only a t-shirt and a pair of boxers, oh and peeing on himself, Joshua Shelton managed to kill 70,000 chickens at once. The 21-year-old snuck into a chicken farm's control room and turned off the power to three chicken houses on the property. This left the poor chickens without food and water, and upset the temperature balance, leading to their deaths.

Shelton has been charged with second degree burglary, trespassing and malicious destruction of property. He's being held on $70,000 bond.
