A Man Is Arrested For Having a Gun, and a Suspicious Bag of Bacon

I’ve never heard of “SUSPICIOUS BACON” before.  But now that I have, I kind of want some.  After I’m done interrogating it, I guess.  31-year-old Evan Cater of Madison Heights, Virginia was arrested back in October after a neighbor spotted him in his backyard carrying two things:  A gun, and a suspicious bag of bacon.

 

I think Evan’s plan was to use the bacon to shut up the guy’s dogs.  But it didn’t work, since the neighbor only caught Evan when his dogs wouldn’t stop barking.

 

Evan was wearing a camouflage mask, so he was charged with wearing a mask in public, which is a felony, plus misdemeanor trespassing, public intoxication, and carrying a gun while intoxicated.

 

He was in court this week to receive the formal charges, and he’ll be in front of a grand jury next month.
