Manuel Meza accused the owner of the taco stand of stealing a drill, which he denied doing. Meza left but came back with a machete and threatened the owner with it. "He ended up chasing him around the taco stand several times," says a cop.
(Statesman Journal)
The old guy probably left his drill in his car and forgot where it was. Still, the taco stand owner could have defused the situation.
"You stole my drill!"
"No, I didn't. Here, have a taco."
"MMMMmmmmm ... delicious! Now, where did I put my drill????"

It's nice to see that Florida doesn't have the market cornered on crazy old people.

He wanted to grill him and see where his drill went but took a machete instead for the keen edge it gave him in his argument

We need stricter drill laws.
