40-Year-Old Sentenced to Prison for Weapon Rampage at Police Precinct Out of Grudge Against Police

[Asia Economy Yeongnam Reporting Headquarters, Reporter Kang Sharon] On the 5th, the Criminal Division 7 of Changwon District Court in Gyeongnam announced that it sentenced A (49), who was tried for threatening a police officer with a weapon (special obstruction of official duties, etc.), to one year in prison.

On May 26 of this year, A was arrested in flagrante delicto at a restaurant in Gimhae-si, Gyeongnam, after causing a disturbance by verbally abusing the staff because the food he ordered did not arrive.

After being investigated and released, he harbored resentment against the police officer in charge of his case and bought a weapon at a nearby mart.

A went to the police precinct where the officer was on duty and caused a commotion, threatening, "I will kill you. Bring me the guy who arrested me earlier."

Judge Park Gyudo stated, "The defendant carried a dangerous object and obstructed the police's legitimate execution of duties related to crime prevention and patrol," adding, "Considering the defendant's remorse and the fact that he has a mother to support, the sentence is determined."
