Police in Multnomah County, Oregon arrested a man after he assaulted several people inside the Hayden Island Toys R Us with a blue light saber.
While someone from the store was on the phone with police 33-year-old David Allen Canterbury left the toy store lightsaber in hand.
Arriving officers tried to arrest Canterbury but he kept swinging the lightsaber at them. One of the officers attempted to use his Taser on the man but the device malfunctioned. Another police officer then tried to use his Taser but Canterbury managed to knock one of the wires away with the toy lightsaber.
Police were finally able to arrest David Canterbury after grabbing him and pinning him to the ground. He was treated by EMTs at the scene and taken to a local hospital for a mental evaluation.
None of the victims of the light saber assault required medical attention. Heh. So far Canterbury has only been charged with Possession of Heroin.
