Man bursts into California tea shop and sets customers alight with blowtorch and WD-40
2020-09-18
[Daily Mail, where America gets its news]
  • Brandon McGlone, 46, of Berkeley, walked into the Feng Cha Teahouse Monday night, yelling about his daughter, and tried to set several people on fire, police said

  • This came moments after he allegedly attacked diners outside a pizzeria

  • Shocking footage captured the surprise attack on the tea shop customers

  • It shows the suspect walking through the door, spraying men with WD-40 and setting their hairs alight using a blowtorch

  • Customers chased him outside and tried to detain him until cops arrived, before the suspect pulled out an ax

  • McGlone was arrested and is now facing 10 felony charges over the attacks

  • A police search of McGlone also uncovered knives including a machete, matches, lighters and several ‘Molotov cocktails'

  • Court records reveal McGlone was already wanted in connection with a domestic violence investigation from September 1

#3  Schizophrenia? Glad the police were able to capture and subdue him without giving the Marxists a new excuse to riot.

BLM, drugged-up or just plain crazy. "Vigilantes?" How about just concerned and responsible citizens?
