Brigham City or Beirut?
About midnight police scrambled to Brigham City Hall to confront a man who was randomly firing an AK47 in the parking lot.

KSL-TV breathlessly reports the man was hollering obscenities and would not put down the gun. The latter is not unusual in Box Elder County, but shouting obscenities, no way.

A deputy shot the man three times and he's in surgery. Matthew Jaramillo, 32, is also the suspect in the robbery of a check cashing business Saturday. (What kind of fiend robs a check cashing store?)

They say he held a knife to the clerk to rob the store of more than five thousand dollars, and then tied up the woman in the back of the store.

By the way, an AK goes for about $400 to $700 on KSL.com classifieds.
