Dedicated to Empowering and Informing the Burlingame Community

Since last week's Grim Reaper post proved so popular, here is another local police report from the Post.

A man was arrested in Burlingame after he waved an ax and mooned another driver, police said yesterday.  The run-in began Thursday at 11:13 am on the 1100 block of Broadway when a man was driving out of a bank parking lot to cross the roadway.   But in doing so he blocked traffic, said Capt. Mike Matteucci.

Another man honked his horn at the man, causing the other driver to get out of his car and yell, police said.  He then allegedly drove forward slowly going less than 5 mph and hit the man with his car.  He then went around the man and drove off but got stuck at the next stoplight.  At that intersection, he allegedly got out of his car and waved the ax around his head.  He then also pulled his pants down and showed his behind to the man blocking traffic.  He was arrested for assault with a deadly weapon and indecent exposure.

For real.  The less colorful version is found here.  Search on 9/24 using the "Public Disturbance" filter and a Brandishing Weapon pin will come up.
