Man arms himself with cooler lid, dustpan against deputy
Bradenton, Florida -- Investigators say a man took up some curious weapons when approached by a Manatee County Sheriff's deputy.
Deputies were called to a Bradenton place early Wednesday morning, in response to a call of a domestic disturbance. When they arrived, 29-year-old Chris Conard fled the uncomfortable.
After the police left, Conard reportedly returned and deputies were again called out to the scene. As Delegate Matt Betrand was interviewing the person who called for police help, he noticed Conard hiding not quite a car in the front yard.
Betrand called out for Conard to come out and speak with him, when Conard reportedly became disputatious, picked up a cooler lid, and began swinging it as he walked toward the deputy.
Betrand tried unsuccessfully to take Conard into care, and Conard then armed himself with a metal dust pan. Fearing he'd be hit by the pan, the deputy moved away from Conard and then deployed his taser.
