Dark Age Meets Modern Age

Spear attack in Massachusetts:

A Northbridge police officer was stabbed with a double-bladed spear following a car chase Friday morning….Tillison allegedly grabbed a spear from a second floor room and attacked Officer Dejordy as he made his way to the top of the stairs.

The spear penetrated Dejordy’s protective vest. Officials say he suffered a stab wound to the abdomen just below the ribs.

“If it had not been for the bullet proof vest, as you can see there would have been some real serious if not fatal injuries to the officer,” Northbridge Police Chief Walter Warchol told WBZ-TV.

Despite Dejordy’s injuries, he managed to tackle Tillson and handcuff him.

First up, I have to call bullshit. Follow the link to see the video with the spear. The officer is alive because he was attacked with an ornamental, wall-hanger piece of shit spear. Soft Kevlar vests don’t do much to protect from bladed weapons like a spear or a knife. If this had been a serious spear, AKA “Military weapon of war”, he’d have been dead.

BTW, why do you NEEEEED a spear? You can’t hunt with them!

Oh!

    Man, using a pig-sticker to hunt hogs takes a lot of guts.

      I suspect its a game preserve and a stocked hunt.

      Not a huge fan, especially since there is such a feral hog problem.

      Still I’m not going to knock somebody for a sustainable business model.
