TUCSON, Ariz. — A witness who saw a man steal two cases of beer followed him out of a convenience store and shot him to death after the thief charged at him with a log, according to authorities in southern Arizona.

Police in Tucson are investigating, and prosecutors will determine whether to charge the shooter, a man who has not been identified, Sgt. Kimberly Bay said.

Never bring a log and a stolen beer to a gunfight.

SUDS RUSTLING = DEATH.

The beer thief needed shot.

But what about the BEER? Did it survive?.....OH, the huge manatee!.....................

[Gamecock]

Charged at him with a log? Was the lad Scottish?

AP spin: Make this about the beer, not the perp charging someone with a log = deadly weapon.

I would have to say it depends on the beer being stolen..........More than a few brews could be seen as doing beer drinkers a favor for removing them.

Tossing the caber!

Read an article about that in Popular Science in about 1964, when I was but a wee laddie.

The headline is absent an important piece of info.

The oddest thing about that sport is that points are awarded for accuracy not distance.

I wonder if it was an automatic assault log? There should be laws!

Love Anchor Steam beer, it's $10/6 pack here in NW OH, but oh well...

As an old appliance mechanic, I do get a kick out of the company's savior's name. His company made good stuff, back in the day at least.
