This is in the same vein as our Busted Martial Artists thread. Actually, things have been pretty quiet here lately so I thought I'd post a few news items.

Cops: Acupuncture business owner causes ruckus at Scarsdale shop

SCARSDALE - An agitated acupuncture business owner damaged a Dunkin' Donuts cash register and a Scarsdale police holding cell last night, police said.

Police said Damien Chang, 42, of Mahopac, the proprietor of Za Oh Pyung Acupuncture, 6 Depot Place, next door to the 10 Depot Place Dunkin' Donuts, was yelling at doughnut shop employees and throwing his arms in the air when police arrived, Lt. Bryant Clark said.

Chang had punched the store's cash register, breaking it, Clark said.

Outside, he gestured at police and made verbal threats, Clark said.

At the double trailer police are temporarily housed in, Chang kicked the holding cell door, causing major damage to it, Clark said.

Chang has been charged with second- and third-degree criminal mischief, felonies, and disorderly conduct, a violation.

Police do not know what caused the 10:19 p.m. blowup.

Clark said it took time to identify Chang in part due to a language barrier. Chang was being held at the Westchester County jail until his court appearance tomorrow.
