Guy With Guitar, Sword, Knives Scares Customers At Iowa Convenience Store
Police say a man with a guitar, a sword, throwing knives and a flask of cocaine was scaring customers outside of a Tiffin gas station Monday night.
Police responded to a call at 11:21 p.m. at the Kum & Go in Tiffin for a complaint of a man outside with a guitar. Deandre Lamar Ronald Irby, 21, was spotted outside the gas station. A handle was sticking out the back of Irby's shirt, according to the police report, and when police asked Irby what it was, he stated it was a sword.
Police say they took the "samurai-type" sword from Irby, who also had two throwing knives and a flask with a white powder substance that he told police was "probably coke," according to the complaint.
