ROGERS, Ark. – Two Arkansas men face charges after allegedly shooting each other during a night of drinking while each man tried on a bulletproof vest, according to the Benton County Sheriff’s Office. ![auiqs.jpg :auiqs.jpg: :auiqs.jpg:](/styles/smilies/new/auiqs.jpg.gif)

However, Ferris’ wife arrived at the hospital a short time later, telling investigators that her husband and Hicks shot each other while drinking on the back porch of their home on Deer Run Lane in Rogers.![lol :lol: :lol:](/styles/smilies/lol.gif)
Ferris later recanted his initial story to deputies, saying he made it up to keep Hicks from getting in trouble, according to the affidavit.
Ferris said he had been wearing the vest when he asked Hicks to shoot him with a .22-caliber semi-automatic rifle. The vest stopped the bullet, but still hurt and left a mark on his chest.
Ferris became “pissed” because he was hurting from the shot and “unloaded the clip into Christopher’s back” after Hicks put the vest on, according to the affidavit.![laughing0301 :laughing0301: :laughing0301:](/styles/smilies/new/laughing0301.gif)
Hicks only suffered bruising from the gunshots.
