Yep, you heard right - from OregonLive.com via Boing Boing comes the story of a suspect, identified only as a 33-year-old man, who was arrested for assaulting three people with a blue light saber at a local Toys R Us. Officers arriving on scene tried to arrest the man, but he kept swinging the light saber at them. One officer's taser failed to work while another officer used his taser and made contact, but the man knocked one of the wires away with the light saber.
After his arrest he was being held, pending a mental evaluation. He faces "several criminal charges" after he is evaluated.
None of the victims of the light saber assault needed medical attention.
