MADISON, WI (WKOW) — Madison police arrested a man after he called 911 on himself for using an ax to destroy his own property.
The incident occurred Sunday night at a home on Madison’s west side, according to a blog post by Madison Police Chief Mike Koval.
The 34-year-old man thought his wife had damaged his action figures, said Koval.
After his wife had left the house, he used a log-splitting ax to destroy his TV, the TV stand, a laptop and a few other items in the house, the post said. Then the man took his ax outside to attack the family car, police said. He clipped off both side-view mirrors, “smashed the car,” and finally embedded the ax in the in the windshield, according to Koval.
The man called 911, admitting that he overreacted and had too much to drink, Koval wrote.
Officers arrived at the home just after 10 p.m. to find the ax still stuck in the car’s windshield. Police arrested the man on charges of disorderly conduct and felony damage to property, according to the blog post.
Well, I’m sorry that you have split up with a lot of axes.
Maybe you should take them to dinner or something instead of whacking at logs with them.
Thoughtfulness.
That’s the key to a long term relationship.
You are apparently unfamiliar with the rather adult side of cosplay. It’s a culture unto its own.
You are right.
I know a little something about horseplay.
I once watched a herd of horses put on a production of Cat On A Hot Tin Roof.
The lead horse kept falling through the roof.
They’re way heavier than cats.
I wonder what he was drinking.
Long ago, a man in my hometown cut his house in half (left and right) with a chainsaw. Ugly divorce.
“Guess he didn’t like the bad calls on the Sunday NFL games! ;)”
Neither did I!
A drunken Madison man! “Who touched my monkey action figure! Where’s my Axe!”
The man is a metaphor for liberalism in the U.S.
>>Police arrested the man on charges of disorderly conduct and felony damage to property
Felony damage to his own property?!
The police need the citation money.
Husband demanded that his wife tell him where his action figures are, she said, “why don’t you axe Alexa?”
So he did.
>>Criminal statutes in some states include public intoxication as one kind of behavior that can be considered disorderly conduct.
He was at home. The closest he came to being “in public” was when he went out to the vehicle. Was it parked in his driveway or the street?
Had his wife damaged his figures as he believed/suspected?
Is she up for a felony destruction charge as well?
A few years ago my son and I used a log splitter to destroy a stack of old hard drives.
Monty Python – Im A Lumberjack Lyrics
I’m a lumberjack and I’m ok
I sleep all night and I work all day
(He’s a lumberjack and he’s ok
He sleeps all night and he works all day)
I cut down trees, I eat my lunch
I go to the lavat’ry
On Wednesdays I go shopping
And have buttered scones for tea
(He cuts down trees...)
(He’s a lumberjack...)
I cut down trees, I skip and jump
I love to press wild flow’rs
I put on women’s clothing
And hang around in bars
(He cuts down trees...)
(He’s a lumberjack...)
I cut down trees, I wear high heels
Suspenders and a bra
I wish I’d been a girlie
Just like my dear mama
(He cuts down trees...)
(He’s a lumberjack...)
(Or maybe He’s not a Lumberjack?)
Al Bundy?
Maybe - I was rooting for the Saints and I’m not losing any sleep over the inept refs...or destroy anything. Since the guy has “action figures” we can probably deduce how he votes....
