AUGUST 5--Meet Robert McClain. The Michigan man, 42, was arrested last week
after he attempted to literally go medieval on cops. According to the below
Royal Oak Police Department report, officers were dispatched to McClain's
home after a motorist called 911 to report that McClain had fled the scene
of an auto accident. When they arrived at his crib, McClain allegedly tried
to strike a cop with a four-foot sword. After missing, McClain retreated to
his basement, where he donned a chainmail armored vest and leather gauntlets
to protect his arms. He also added a giant wooden mallet to his arsenal and
beckoned officers to come downstairs and get him. "I'm gonna crush your
@@@@@@@ skulls," McClain warned. Then, in a nice rhetorical flourish (for a
lunatic, at least), he added, "I have a thousand years of power." That
omnipotence, however, was no match for a police Taser, which felled McClain.
He was then carted off and charged with felony assault and a misdemeanor
count for failing to remain at an accident scene. (3 pages)
