Antichrist Sends Naked Man to Kill Suburbanite - Plot Fails - Would-Be Assassin Arrested
2005-04-11
Man detains naked intruder armed with knife

BREA, Calif. (AP) - A man who awoke Sunday to find an armed and naked intruder standing over his bed subdued the suspect until police arrived, authorities said. Eric Wall, 45, told police that the intruder - identified as 18-year-old Arthur David Macias - was carrying a kitchen knife and said the anti-Christ had sent him to the house to kill Wall.

Wall grabbed Macias and pulled him onto the bed. After a short struggle, Macias was detained by Wall and his 15-year-old son, who armed themselves with baseball bats.

Police said Macias broke into the Wall's home about 35 miles southeast of Los Angeles by removing a screen from an open laundry room window and stole a knife from the kitchen. Police said Macias did not indicate why he chose the residence. Macias was arrested on attempted murder, making criminal threats, assault with a deadly weapon and burglary. He was being held at the Orange County Jail on $1 million bail.
Why is this odd??? We have lots of folks here, in the L.A. Metro area, sent by Mr. 666 to do something bad. {snicker} After all, they don't say "Hooray for Hollywood", for nothing do they? With $1,000,000 bail the cops are taking him seriously {snicker}

#15  Just guessing, of course, but I'll bet the homeowner, being a guy, went for the knife hand in the struggle.

I'd have gone for a different body part....

(What did you say, Mr. Naked Guy? C'mon, squeak up! ;-p)

#14  or I can hold both ends and administer a cross-check to whatever body part is closest.

I can show you some cross-checking...

#13  "I greered his naked ass with my Louisville Slugger,..

In my case, since I play recreational hockey, I managed to keep a lot of the wooden stix I broke, and trimmed them a little. I can either swing the stick like a baby Slugger, or I can hold both ends and administer a cross-check to whatever body part is closest. :)

#11  B-a-R's post made me realize it may be time to make Judge Greer into a verb...

"I greered his naked ass with my Louisville Slugger, a Roger Maris Signature, so he's on life support, now. The kid got a coupla shots in, too. I'm proud of his slugging average."

#10  "Subdued"? Had it been my dwelling, there's a good chance the guy wouldn't have escaped the encounter in good health.

#4  I doubt there's a Charlie Manson wannabee somewhere out there sending dinks like Macias on nude kill missions. This guy is probably just a whack job living out some fantasy -- or looking for 3 squares a day and video game time in a mental facility.

#2  This seems quite odd. A 45 y/o awakes and subdues an armed intruder less than half his age that was standing over him. Our intruder seems to have been a rather passive fellow. Besides the whole armed breaking & entering thing I mean.

#1  Hmm, I think the Antichrist needs to review his hiring policies.
