Squeegee used as club in gas pump fight
Associated Press
CONWAY, Ark. — A Conway man is due in court on charges he used a gas pump squeegee to hit another man during a fight over who was first in line at a gas pump.
Twenty-one-year-old Hector Chavez is to be arraigned Friday in Faulkner County Circuit Court on a second-degree battery charge.
A Conway police report says the victim told officers that he was waiting in line at a gas pump when Chavez cut in front of him. The victim — who was not identified — said he confronted Chavez with the squeegee and swung at him before Chavez took the squeegee and began beating him with it.
A phone listing could not be found for Chavez and it wasn't clear whether he had an attorney.
If I could see one more fight before I die I think it would definitely have to be this one. It's got animosity, an interesting weapon and a strong antagonist. Unless you're like me and you believe Chavez was the victim. If some dude cut me off at a gas pump and then came at me with a squegee I'd beat his ass mercilessly too. But this is Arkansas and state law clearly states when the victim/pepetrator is cloudy you always arrest the minority. Sorry Mr. Chavez.
