Zane Floyd - Arrest

Arrest

Floyd exited the supermarket's north doors to meet the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department, who had been called by an employee who had been upstairs and believed there was a robbery in progress. Without exchanging any gunfire, Floyd ran back into the supermarket and exited through the west doors of the supermarket, in hopes of avoiding the police outside. When he noticed that the complex was surrounded by officers, Floyd threatened to kill himself, pointing the shotgun to his head. After an eight-minute standoff, police convinced Floyd to surrender. They immediately arrested him on charges of murder; he confessed that he had killed all of the people inside the supermarket.

Famous quotes containing the word arrest:

    Let me arrest thy thoughts; wonder with me,
    Why plowing, building, ruling and the rest,
    Or most of those arts, whence our lives are blest,
    By cursed Cain’s race invented be,
    And blest Seth vexed us with Astronomie.
    John Donne (c. 1572–1631)

    One does not arrest Voltaire.
    Charles De Gaulle (1890–1970)

    An unjust law is itself a species of violence. Arrest for its breach is more so.
