An Orem man whose luck ran out in a game of UNO was arrested for aggravated assault after police say he smacked a 64-year-old woman and then threatened her husband with a large kitchen knife.
The 58-year-old man, who had been drinking, was playing cards in his home about 10:30 p.m. on Saturday with his 47-year-old nephew and the nephew's wife near 400 East and 1800 South.
He became agitated and smacked the woman on the back of the head. When his nephew told him to stop, the man reached up to do it again, said Orem police Lt. Gary Downey.
The couple decided to leave and gathered their belongings. The man grabbed his nephew's arm and punched him, Downey said. The nephew pushed the man, and the two continued When the nephew was walking out the door to leave, his uncle shoved him in the back. The 47-year-old turned to see his uncle standing in the doorway holding a large kitchen knife.
Downey said the uncle was threatening him with the knife and ordering the pair to leave.
Police arrested the man on suspicion of aggravated assault, as well as for three outstanding warrants of aggravated assault, simple assault and driving under the influence.
VH: Sweetness, got any red cards you can lay down? Eden: *SCORPIO DAGGER STARE OF VENGEANCE* Don't you even think about putting down that card! PP: LMAO!
Man cannot believe that is real ....thought that would be something that got published in the Onion or something. Wow ....people need to get a grip on life.
Obviously there are some deep seated issues with this family that goes beyond UNO. Hide the board games..... guns my be drawn if Chutes and Ladders comes out!
