Maryland State Police say they have shot and killed a Cecil County man who confronted state troopers with swords and what appeared to be guns.
Police say 25-year-old Jason E. Honaker of Elkton was shot and killed in the incident Friday night. He was taken to a hospital in Wilmington, Del., but died of his injuries.
Police say Honaker called state police and said he would kill his neighbor if officers didn't come to his apartment. Two officers responded and Honaker confronted them with a two-foot sword and what appeared to be a rifle. It was actually an air rifle.

How do you shoot someone when you are armed with a sword?
And when did Md. start issuing loaded swords to their State Police?

If you shoot the guy, why kill him with a sword? Just keep shooting him with the gun until he’s dead. ;-)
Don’t you just love those headline writers?
Yes, this site has been snail-slow today. I read a book while waiting. Usually can get a page or two in per click.
I wish I could rig up a little dinger that would tell me when my click finally comes through.

And the headline says [multiple] sword
s and gun
s -- when the article says one "two-foot sword" (Scottish dirk?) and an air rifle.
Hyperbole, anyone?

Exactly. Surprised the cops were so happy to help out. It was obvious what the crazy guy was doing.

Glad it was the state police this time. Earlier this week, sheriff's deputies shot someone in Earleville and several months ago there was a "suicide by police" in Elkton.
Must be something in the water .....

Swords AND guns together - if bacon was somehow involved, the universe would explode from the awesome.

Reading the title leads on to believe the police shot a man, then finished him off with a sword.

I thought it said that they shot and killed him with swords; thus, my graphic.
