其原因是“on his way to a Halloween party, was mistakenly dropped off at the wrong house.或He was on his way to a Halloween party and went to the wrong house by mistake.(在去万圣节聚会的路上,他误入别人家的房子。)”
张宏著《闲聊英语》中《93. 聊聊美国的粗俗英语》将此事归结为日本留学生不理解美国土话所致。该书这样描述:1992年一个日本留学生Hattori Yoshihiro误入Louisiana州Baton Rouge市区的美国人院子,美国人喊“Freeze!(当地俚语,“站住!”,相当于“Stop!”)”。日本学生没听懂,继续往里走,结果被美国人开枪打死。
