...(IF TRUE). Therefore, don't want to die, don't be scamming people in the first place:

Man pauses date to kill parking lot scammer, then returns to restaurant, Texas cops say

A Texas man is accused of fatally shooting a fake parking attendant while on a date in Houston, according to police. Erick Aguirre, 29, went to downtown Houston on April 11 to meet with a woman. They arrived in separate vehicles before 8 p.m., and shortly after they parked, they were approached by a man claiming to be a parking attendant, according to a criminal complaint filed April 14 in Harris County. The man, Elliott Nix, told them it would cost $20 per vehicle to park, but that they could get their money back at the end of the night if they showed him a receipt from the restaurant, the documents said. Aguirre gave the man $40 and walked to the restaurant with his date.

But moments later, surveillance camera video captures Aguirre sprinting out of the restaurant and grabbing something from inside his vehicle after an employee told him Nix was a scammer, documents said. A witness told investigators he saw Aguirre chasing after Nix with a handgun. They disappeared from view but the witness heard a gunshot, then saw Aguirre “nonchalantly walking back to his car,” putting the pistol away and heading back to the restaurant, documents said. Aguirre left Nix wounded and lying in the street while he resumed his date, according to the complaint.

First responders arrived, and Nix was taken to a hospital. He was pronounced dead at 8:43 p.m. The woman Aguirre was with reached out to investigators through an attorney April 13, two days after the date, documents said. She told investigators she didn’t hear any gunshots, and Aguirre told her he had “just scared the guy and everything was fine.” She shared photos from their date in which Aguirre is wearing clothing that matches the man seen in surveillance video. Based on the times the photos were taken, their date went on for several hours after the shooting. Aguirre was arrested April 15 and is facing a charge of murder, according to court documents.

This case kind of falls in the same category too in regards to "negative" behaviors:

California doorbell prank leads to murder of three teens

On Friday (April 28), a 45-year-old California resident was found guilty of murder after a prank involving several neighborhood teens went terribly wrong. The young boys were playing a game of ding-dong ditch when they stopped at the wrong house.

The incident took place on Jan. 19, 2020. Anurag Chandra was sitting inside his Riverside County home when the group of teens began ringing his doorbell. He got up to answer and recalled seeing one of the boys flash his butt at him before the group ran off. According to The New York Post, Chandra had already drunk 12 beers that day and became “extremely, extremely mad” about their tomfoolery.

Chandra hopped into his vehicle and chased the teens as they hurried off in a Toyota Prius. During the chase, his car reached up to 99 mph. Eventually, the irate California man caught up to the boys and ran their car off a road in Temescal Valley, an area about 60 miles southeast of Los Angeles. After seeing their Prius strike a tree, Chandra fled the scene. Daniel Hawkins and Drake Ruiz of Corona and Jacob Ivascu of Riverside — all 16 years of age — were identified as victims of the deadly crash. Another three survived, including the 18-year-old driver and two 13-year-olds who were riding in the car at the time.

During last week’s sentencing, Chandra was found guilty of three counts of attempted murder and three counts of first-degree murder. He claimed he never meant to hurt anyone, and despite rear-ending their Prius, he didn’t think the kids who rang his doorbell were injured. California District Attorney Mike Hestrin released a statement after the sentencing. “The murder of these young men was a horrendous and senseless tragedy for our community,” he began. “I thank the jury for their verdict. This is an important step toward justice,” Hestrin added.
