πͺπ₯‘ Who Needs Cutlery, Right? “Axecidental” Dinner Disruption Wounds Four in Kiwi Land π³πΏ
TL;DR; In a scene straight out of a horror flick, one bloke decided to bring his own “cutlery” to dinner β a giant axe! π± He caused mayhem in three different Chinese restaurants in Auckland, New Zealand, leaving four people wounded. But don’t worry folks, this wasn’t some sinister chopstick rebellion. π₯’ Police are considering it an isolated incident, and thankfully, our axe-wielding diner has been apprehended. π
Picture this β you’re unwinding at your local Chinese restaurant, a hot plate of Kung Pao Chicken on the table, and in walks a dude wielding an axe. Yeah, that’s right, a friggin’ axe! πͺ Forget “dinner and a show”, more like “dinner and a shock” right? π¨ Four poor souls got more than they bargained for during their Monday night meal in Auckland when they were attacked by a 24-year-old axe-toting maniac. We’re talking a real-life axeman, folks!
In a scene that would make even Alfred Hitchcock squeamish, our axe-man stormed into Zhangliang Malatang, Yueβs Dumpling Kitchen, and Maya Hotpot, wreaking havoc. And you thought your food fights were intense, right? π Witnesses say it was all pretty random, just an axe-wielding man casually swapping restaurant hopping for hospital tripping. Four victims ended up in the hospital, with three of them still chilling in stable condition while one has been discharged.π₯
Don’t you just hate it when you’re munching on some dumplings and an axe comes your way? π₯π₯ One victim relayed his chilling encounter to the New Zealand Herald, saying he was in mid-bite when the axe-man strolled in and attacked his buddy. He had to block the axe with his hand! We’d give him a high-five for his bravery, but he’s probably sore enough as it is. π¬
Inspector Stefan Sagar, the guy in charge of dealing with axe-related dinner disturbances (among other things), says this is an isolated incident, so no need to start wearing helmets to your favorite noodle joint just yet! π But he didn’t rule out any possible motive. Just a normal night in the neighborhood, huh?
Don’t worry, the axe-man didn’t get to enjoy his dinner or the aftermath, as he was nabbed by the boys in blue right on the scene. π So, while it wasn’t exactly your typical dinner service, the night ended with an extra side of justice, served hot and fresh!
But let’s take a moment to chew on this β why did this happen in the first place? Was it a misunderstanding? A misdirected chopstick protest? Or perhaps a twisted take on BYO? Why would someone decide to disrupt a peaceful dinner with such a violent act? π€
Your guess is as good as ours. But let’s keep the conversation going. We’re all ears β what do you think motivated this rogue diner to bring an axe to a dumpling fight?
