  • He seemed surprised that he was told to drop the axe. He was just nonchalantly asking the cop where the judge is and he was using the axe as a walking stick.
  • @Fat12219
    65 years old , he doesn't care anymore !
  • @MoparAdventure
    How bizarre, he has an AXE and walks into a courthouse. Yet he surrenders without any hesitation or incident...very odd.
  • That second guy who stole the ambulance 🚑 is definitely high on meth.
  • @TripleOG2024
    Who TF wakes up thinking it is a great idea to grab an axe 🪓 then enter a courtroom to threaten a judge 😆
  • @tonyelbows8045
    this guy actually thought there would be no guard on duty at the courthouse?
  • @TopFix
    What's the point of stealing an ambulance anyway. Sounds more like a chore than anything. It's almost as if he was possessed. Humans are weird man.
  • @murphyr31
    That was a seriously poorly executed plan. Not only did he lose his freedom but he lost his axe
  • @trinity2145
    So attempted murder for a judge but a random people gets stalking, probation or let off. . Amazing.
  • @Madybananas
    He just gave right up. I question his commitment. Why even bother.
  • @mchawk315
    I mean come on, how else did he think this was gonna end?
