A SWAT team was called to a former GOP staffer's home after he pulled a fake gun on a Dell technician. Story out of Arlington Virginia:
A lobbyist and self-proclaimed communications expert who got mad when a computer tech couldn’t make repairs Monday began threatening to kill him with a gun he was holding if he couldn’t fix the computer, according to Arlington County Police.
The tech told the homeowner, Joseph “Joe” Nestor Mondello, 50, that he would have to leave because he needed a part to fix the computer, police said.
The news “sent our subject over the edge,” said Dustin Sternbeck, Arlington County Police spokesman. “He became furious and clearly agitated,” telling the tech ”your’e not leaving this house until the computer is fixed.”
Mondello left the room and returned with what looked like a gun held at his side, and began pacing back and forth, said Sternbeck, telling the tech ”I’m going to kill you slowly.”
Mondello’s wife then intervened, coming downstairs after hearing her husband make threats, Sternbeck said, and got between her husband and the tech.
At that point, the tech was able to flee the residence; he contacted his office and they told him to call 9-1-1, Sternbeck said. Cont.
