Weapons, they grow on trees!
One man has been arrested after police say he used a 4-foot tree branch to threaten a store clerk.
Marvin Jones, 43, was arrested Tuesday and could face charges of assault and battery with a dangerous weapon. Officers were called to the 7-Eleven at 1101 N. Western Ave. where they say Jones screamed obscenities at the them.
A store clerk told police that Jones, who referred to himself as “General Jones,” was banned from the store for making death threats against the store manager….After a struggle, police arrested him in the parking lot. While in the back of the police car, Jones tried to light himself on fire with a lighter, according to officers.
This dude is obviously more crazy than deadly…still a nice solid swing with a tree branch can certainly end somebody’s day. Hey but let’s not concern ourselves with things that aren’t “Gun Death”!

and none of the puns. You know we pine for them. Just trying to spruce the place up a bit…
