We're the Prospective Only Ones Enough

Court files indicate that Holtquist allegedly told police he fired a .22 caliber handgun out the window of his pickup at least 10 times. "Joshua stated that he had been consuming alcohol and lost all his money at the Saloon Number 10," Witcraft stated.

Holtquist said he was frustrated because of the vehicle in front of him. Holtquist allegedly told investigators that being caught would jeopardize his possible future employment with the Pennington County Sheriff's Office. [More]
See, this is why they can't let you and me go armed in establishments that serve alcohol.

There were rumors going around town that the AZ fugitives had been apprehended here in Newcastle, but I'll bet this is what they were talking about instead.

Very exciting! And, hopefully, a budding "only one" got his career chopped off.

What amazes me is the comments to this story run almost exclusively towards the fact the gambling and alcohol don't mix. No mention in most of them about how our budding little petty tyrant ran from his prospective employers/colleagues. Or about the misuse of a motor vehicle while intoxicated and aggravated assault with a firearm while drunker than Cooter Brown.

I sometimes wonder about this town, I really do.
