Well handled. heard this from my Dad this morning about a guy he knows;
Police in League City, a suburb, say Ervin Brittnacher (BRIHT'-nah-kur) reported noises outside his house awakened him about 6 a.m. Monday. Police Lt. Bruce Whitten says he went to the door and saw a man armed with a rifle. Whitten says Brittnacher hit him in the throat with the side of his hand, took his rifle and ordered him to sit down until police arrived.
Brittnacher later offered these wise words: "I used to own a nightclub, and I knew it was never a good idea to talk to people holding guns."
