CHICAGO - The Iowa man accused of bringing guns and ammunition into a downtown Chicago hotel over the Fourth of July weekend bonded out of jail Wednesday, and then proposed to a woman.
What is strange is there were reports that 32-year-old Keegan Casteel is already married.
Casteel walked out of the Cook County Jail around 5:30 p.m. after a judge set his bond at $10,000 – meaning he only had to pay $1,000 for freedom.
He was still wearing the same t-shirt as his booking photo and walked past reporters straight to a waiting SUV with Iowa plates.
FOX 32 later caught up with him again at the 18th District police station. We spotted him inside where someone handed him his personal belongings. We tried speaking with him, but he ignored us.
Casteel then went to his car, but instead of hopping in the passenger’s side, he went to the driver’s side door, got down on one knee and proposed. The woman began to cry.
"Care to say anything to us now? Was this part of the plan?" FOX 32’s Elizabeth Matthews asked.
He responded, "No."
Casteel, the woman and two kids in the backseat then drove off.
There were reports that Casteel is married, so this is an unusual turn of events.

Such a happy couple!
Wonder what Wife #1. will have to say about a new recruit?
Setting the stage for an insanity plea?
“Where’s the beef?”
Out of the frying pan and into the fire.
“..And such small portions too!”
Why is that chick walking across the street carrying a toilet bowl brush?
Is that the wife crossing the street?
Lol! Looks like one at first glance. Looking More closely it appears to me to be wireless mic. Maybe a reporter following the guy for an interview?
#3. His first wife will say to him when he arrives home, “Ever hear of a shotgun wedding? Well here’s the shotgun and your next wedding is going to be a blow-out”.
It's for self defense. In Chicago, law-abiding folks aren't allowed to have things like guns. If you get attacked, the best legal alternative is a used toilet brush - stick it in the perps face, and hope it's not something they enjoy...

I just sent this story to a couple of my Iowa friends and am awaiting an Ozzie-Man/Iowa Man type analysis.
Love me. Love my guns.
Lol!
