Beaver County police chase down 1-man wrecking crew

He was convicted of disorderly conduct and had paid $10 in January toward a fine of $281.50.

"He felt that was enough," a spokeswoman at Judge Schafer's said.

Mr. Hughes threatened to retrieve a gun from his car and shoot everyone in the judge's office. As he left, the staff summoned police next door, and the pursuit was on.

Chief Kramer said he caught up with Mr. Hughes within minutes and the suspect pulled over. Instead of surrendering, he put his van in reverse and backed into the police cruiser and took off again.

Mental note: When leaving a judges office never threaten to go get your gun and kill them all, that's bad. Also, if pulled over, putting your car in reverse, backing into the police cruiser and taking off again does not make the cops happy.

At one point, Center police Chief Barry Kramer said, David Hughes, 39, of Freedom, waved his middle finger at his pursuers during the chase.

Well, he won't be living there anymore, both literally and figuratively...
