Can you imagine yourself sitting inside your apartment when your neighbor starts breaking through your door with a chain saw?
Well that’s what happened to Jamie Zaleski when 34 year old Robert Kane who was angry because one of Zaleski’s friends parked in front of his house used a chainsaw to get into Zaleski’s house.
The incident happened in Scranton, Pa last March. Zaleski and several of his friends ran out the back when the attack began.
Police say Zaleski heard a knock at the door, asked who it was, and Kane responded, “Your worst (expletive) nightmare. Open the door or I’ll cut it down.”
Officials say, he then cut a gash in the door with a chain saw.
The defense said Zaleski never actually saw Kane wielding the saw. But a witness testified that Kane bragged about the incident, and the jury convicted Kane on Tuesday of attempted burglary, terroristic threats and other charges. A sentencing date wasn’t immediately set.

21 year old Antonio Vasquez was recently released from Fresno County Jail after prosecutors said they didn’t have enough evidence to file criminal charges.
He was briefly held in jail as a suspect after two California Farm workers had their home broken into and were attacked by a man. The suspect was said to have rubbed spices into the face of one man and had smacked the other with an 8 inch sausage!
Definitely a strange assault!
Sheriff’s Lt. Ian Burrimond says Vasquez was found hiding in a field wearing only a T-shirt, boxers and socks after the Saturday morning attack. Vasquez is also accused of stealing $900 from the home.

A few months ago a 55 year old woman was about to go into the Virginia Lottery office to cash winning lottery tickets worth $10,000 when she was attacked.
The two men who attacked her are now behind bars. Blake Jordan and Kenneth Marshall, both 22, apparently attacked the woman with a hammer. They’ve been charged with maiming, attempted robbery and conspiracy to commit robbery.
One of the men is apparently a nephew of the 55 year old woman. Isn’t that cold blooded?
Keary Fox, 56, a lottery worker, first hear the woman scream at 1:10 pm so he ran outside and saw Jordan on top of the woman. He put Jordan in a headlock while a customer took the hammer out of his hand. The pair held him until police arrived. Marshall was arrested later in the day.
The woman suffered lacerations to the back of the head. Lucky for her that lottery worker came by when he did or she might have had worse injuries or perhaps even have been murdered.
