Frankie Lewis wanted some butter, dammit!

[Jaded]

OCALA – Ocala police officers arrested a man Sunday morning who they say pulled a knife on members of a church congregation who would not give him butter in the morning buffet.

Frankie Lewis, 48, wanted to get some butter in the buffet line at Four Square Church at 118 N.W. Tuscawilla Ave., police spokeswoman Sgt. Angy Scroble said. When he could not get any, he pulled a knife on members of the congregation and said he would cut them.


As he put the knife back in his pocket, a church member hit him with a wooden board, Scroble said. Lewis then fled on a bicycle where officers in the area quickly caught him.

I enjoy a nice pat of butter on my pancakes and all...but jeez louise.

I wasn't clear on whether or not there wasn't any butter at all or if, for whatever bizarre reason, there was butter and this man was denied a schmear.

Either way...when you're freakin' out over butter, it's time to up the meds, probably.

I'm just sayin'...

I'm not standing up for the crazy butter dude in any way when I say this...but...

He puts the knife away and THEN someone reacts?
