Loose Cannon
A man went to a cell phone shop in Gainesville, Fla., and demanded that they fix his phone. Their response was perhaps unwise: they told him to wait until the store opened. The “enraged” man went to his car and got a gun, and threatened to shoot if they didn’t help him. Police arrived to find him in his car — armed with a shotgun and a revolver. Wayne Cannon, 59, was charged with aggravated assault and weapons violations, and threatened to kill the police once he is out of jail. He was held on $200,000 bond.
