Al Capone Still Thrives

Just when you thought the world could not get crazier…it goes one more step over the edge. Case in point: Check out the products available from Alphonse Capone Industries (www.al-capone.com). You can buy bottles of tequila and vodka shaped like a tommy gun.

That may sound crazy but that is not the crazy I am eluding to. Some dude in Edmonton, Alberta decided to point one of these $85.00 per bottle little gems at the police. What do you think happened? What a doofus. He only got arrested. Lucky he was not shot.

Machine-gun shaped liquor bottle leads to arrest

The Canadian Press

EDMONTON — Edmonton police say they’ve arrested a 24-year-old suspect after a man pointed what turned out to be a machine gun-shaped liquor bottle at an officer conducting a traffic stop Friday night.

Around 11 p.m., police say a second officer noticed a man in a nearby house pointing what looked like a long barreled gun at the officer doing the traffic stop.

More officers were called in and the home was surrounded.

Several people inside the house eventually surrendered peacefully.

Police then discovered that it wasn’t a real weapon that had been pointed at the officer – it was a liquor bottle made in the shape of a gun.

Jessie Shamarchi Petrin, 24, was charged with possession of an imitation weapon dangerous to the public peace.
