Tasers at ten paces
2 shoot each other with Tasers in parking spat
associated press
BOULDER, Colo. - It wasn't exactly pistols at 30 paces, but police say a security company supervisor and a restaurateur shot each other with Tasers in a "bonehead" confrontation over parking.
Officers said neither man needed medical attention after the confrontation Saturday and Harvey Epstein, 36, co-owner of Mamacitas restaurant, was arrested on suspicion of felony menacing and using a stun gun.
A police report said Mr. Epstein and Casey M. Dane, a supervisor for Colorado Security Services Inc., were arguing over a metal boot that one of Mr. Dane's guards had clamped on a wheel of a van parked behind Mamacitas. Mr. Dane told police he was afraid Mr. Epstein was going to hit him with a 2-foot-long bolt cutter. Mr. Epstein told police he had tried to remove the boot with the bolt cutter and had not threatened anyone.
Both men drew Tasers.
"They shot each other," Police Sgt. Pat Wyton said. "It was just kind of a bonehead deal."
