A Harvard visiting law professor from Brazil who told police he was shooting at rats when he fired a pellet gun near a synagogue on Yom Kippur has left the United States after his visa was revoked.
Private security assigned to guard the temple during holiday services said they’d heard “at least two loud shots fired” and spotted Gouvêa behind a tree holding a pellet rifle, according to the report.
Um, pellet guns make a loud noise?
