St. Pete Man Killed In Sword Fight?

It’s true. Two neighbors living in a apartments in a warehouse structure in St. Petersburg got into an argument. One of the men apparently went back to his apartment and got a sword; returned to the argument; and killed the other guy.

He must have been pretty casual about it, as he was later arrested at a Duncan Donut shop by a Pinellas County deputy.

I won’t even take advantage of the opportunity to make the obvious jokes about stupid criminals committing a crime and heading to a donut shop. That one is just too easy.
