Axe Guy Arrested

Known offender it seems, and he got scooped up quick:

  • A man is now in custody, accused of taking an axe to firefighters’ vehicles across Chicago, with police effectively extinguishing a bizarre crime spree on the same Chinatown block where it began.

    CPD said officers arrested 26-year-old Jacob Bogdan on Saturday in the 200 block of West Cermak Road, home to a CFD firehouse that was prominently featured in the 1991 Hollywood movie Backdraft. The arrest came hours after detectives issued a public alert about the string of attacks.

    Bogdan, now charged with 21 felony counts of criminal damage to property, is scheduled to appear for a detention hearing on Sunday.

How did the detention hearing turn out? It's property damage, so it's a good bet he's another SAFE-T Act success story.

Did he at least have to surrender all his axes?

The Democrats are going to more heavily regulate the sale, purchase, use and manufacturing of axes, because that's just what they do. No more concealed carry of axes anymore, I guess.

The psychological term is imprinting. The accused has watched so many brave firemen chop holes in the roofs with axes. The accused has not been provided a ladder for accessing roofs, so he improvises and takes out auto windows that pop and shatter providing instant gratification.

Fire commissioner Annette Nance-Holt just issued a directive addressing future similar "random incidents". Fire personnel will soon be issued rape whistles as on duty required equipment if they observe out of the ordinary activity. Personal will sound an alert with three short blows summoning rescue operations by the heroes in blue. All available fire personnel will assemble holding each others hand in a sign of a unified front with their presence while one firefighter continues blowing protocols. The highest ranking member may assign a member under his command to initiate cell phone recording for posting to social media.

The first 100 personnel with be issued leftover 1996 DNC Prez Bill Clinton (D) commemorative polished chrome rape whistles. The newest edition small wind instrument will be a Fang Fang brand Made in Communist China rape-assault whistle immortalizing escapades of democrat congressman Eric Swalwell (D- Californication) will be distributed according to the matrix. Official e-learning training on proper operation of the department issued whistle will be completed by all personnel and compliance will be strictly enforced.

Too bad that isn’t going to happen. The democrats will let him out very soon. As it’s said; it’s only property damage.

You can’t it will never happen. If they are inside already they have someone protecting them and will call for a favor. By the time they would be put out on the street they would have figured out there ways to avoid it
