Police in Delmont, Pennsylvania say they have arrested some clown in a Dairy Queen.
Well, there's more to it than just that. The man wore a clown wig, carried a gun, and claimed he wanted to kill all Democrats and restore Donald Trump as king president.
From CBS:
A Westmoreland County man is facing several charges after police said he wanted to "kill all Democrats."
Jan Stawovy, 61, took a loaded gun into a Delmont Dairy Queen and police said the quick action of an officer saved lives.
This past Saturday is when Delmont police said Stawovy walked into a Dairy Queen on State Route 66 in a yellow safety vest and rainbow clown wig. Callers told police he had a gun. Within a minute, Officer Gregory Stull was there.
Multiple people were inside the DQ at the time and police say a group of people, including several with intellectual disabilities, were heading inside. Officer Stull found Stawovy and took him into custody.
This man belongs in an asylum.
At least he was dressed appropriately given his ridiculous scheme.
Police found a loaded .40 caliber handgun and ammo on him. Stawovy allegedly told police he was "undercover" and he was "working to restore Trump to president king of the United States." He said he was armed to "kill Democrats and liberals" and to protect himself from "drug traffickers." Investigators got a search warrant and found two more guns in his car along with 62 rounds of ammo.
In looking at Stawovy's Facebook page, he has a history of outbursts and threats. In the past two years, Stawovy has been asked to leave two different congregations in Westmoreland County leading up to Saturday's arrest, both sent him letters that say he had outbursts and was threatening.
The New Stanton Assembly of God asked him to leave their congregation in August of last year and not come back to their property. Their letter recommended he get some professional help. Their pastor told KDKA's Chris Hoffman on the phone they have not had contact with Stawovy since he left, and they are praying for him.
Then just on Friday, he got a letter from Barren Run United Methodist Church in Smithton. Their letter says he showed up to their church in a clown costume and scared congregants. They too recommended he get some professional help. Stawovy called both of these letters "love letters,"
The man was a known menace and had been kicked out of two churches, but this is when he finally crossed the line so police got involved.
The man is in custody but has not been placed in jail yet.
Anyway, I bet the FBI was sad this guy is a little too crazy to use as a political tool!
