“Gun Death” Family Brawl

I’m sure your family gatherings are like this. Mine sure are.

A bloody brawl between two families erupted on a California-Kirkbride street early Wednesday, leaving one man dead and a father and son facing homicide charges…Police said the feud began when Mr. Weismantle’s sister, whom authorities did not name, and Mr. Osborne’s daughter, Kierston Simpson, had a “falling out,” according to a criminal complaint…Alex Osborne told police that the woman and Ms. Simpson started brawling in the street. Mr. Weismantle, clutching a glass bottle, said they should “let the girls fight.” Alex Osborne then went back into the home and grabbed a meat cleaver. Mr. Richard said he watched Bryan Osborne do the same.

When Alex Osborne came back out, he and Mr. Weismantle began arguing. Mr. Weismantle chucked the bottle at him and came at him with his fists up, Mr. Osborne told police. Mr. Osborne then lunged at Mr. Weismantle with the cleaver, striking him at least twice, causing the knife to break.

Mr. Richard told police that the elder Mr. Osborne also stabbed Mr. Weismantle during the brawl. When he attempted to stop the men, the elder Mr. Osborne turned and stabbed him twice in the shoulder.

Man that story just goes on-and-on. This is Pittsburgh where guns are “Readily Available”, but oddly no guns were involved, but there was a dead body and injuries. But no “Gun Death”, so it’s OK, right?
