Charlie Chug-a-Lug had broken into the church hoping to score some cash from the office. People give donations in U.S. currency, not plastic, right? A fair presumption, but he couldn’t find the office. So naturally, he began peeling paneling off the walls looking for it. This strenuous activity plumb tuckered the lad out — and made him fiercely hungry, too. He stepped into the kitchen, made a big mess and an even bigger sandwich, grabbed a jug of communion claret out of a cabinet, and sank into a comfy sofa. You can guess the rest: He liked the wine a little too much. And it wasn’t even imported. Remember when Mom told you never to run with scissors, pencils or other sharp pointy things in your hand? And you were smart enough to figure out that meant you shouldn’t run with sharp-stickers in your shorts, either? An unnamed dude in Grand Rapids, Mich., didn’t log that lecture, it seems. Police say Einstein Jr. was pretending to check out several hunting knives at Meijer’s on East Beltline when he suddenly scooped ’em up, stuffed ’em down his pants — apparently with some pointing up, some pointing down, and all without sheaths, no less — and hoofed it for the front door. He had almost made it when alert employees put the grab on him and a shirt-rippin’ party commenced. Knifey-Boy almost broke loose. Well, he broke just loose enough to spin, stumble and fall, and that was the end of his crime spree. An ambulance hauled him from that exact spot to a hospital, where he went right into surgery for treatment of multiple stab wounds. The saga begins in Framingham, Mass., with Middlesex County Sheriff’s deputies serving warrants on 19-year-old Justin Breakspear. No big deal, and had he simply stepped out his door, he prob’ly woulda made bail on a couple of misdemeanors and been home for dinner. But no, Justin had to run and hide in the basement — you know, a basement with no exit or possible That Tattoo Is So You Oh, That Hurts! escape route. Smart, huh? While draggin’ Justin outta the cellar, deputies spotted two sawed-off shotguns and a .380 pistol in plain view. They called Framingham PD to get a warrant for the guns and come join the party. From the start, Justin vehemently denied possessing those guns, pointing out the basement is a “common area” with free access to any apartment-dweller in the building, and those guns could belong to anyone. Sounds like his last defense attorney coached him, right? And that “common area access” issue has gotten tons of charges tossed out for piles of perpetrators. Not Justin, though. An officer noticed with a start that although Justin had been patted down for weapons, he appeared to have a pistol stuck in his pants. Examination revealed it to be a highly detailed tattoo of a .380 pistol, inked on his abdomen so it looked like it was shoved in his shorts. Then officers looked at the tattoo even closer. Hey! Not only did the tattoo depict the very same make and model as the .380 Justin claimed not to know anything about, but the tattooed pistol even bore serial numbers — which matched the serial numbers of the seized pistol. 9 NEW GLOCK 26 LEVEL II We are proud to introduce the newest addition to our Level Two Lever Action line, the GL26PB.
