Sheriff: Deputy shot suspect who stabbed him with machete
LEESVILLE, La. (AP) — A Louisiana sheriff’s deputy was stabbed by a suspect before firing two rounds and wounding his attacker, authorities said Monday.
The American Press reports that the suspect, Malcomb Holcomb, 46, of Leesville, was recovering from surgery at a central Louisiana hospital following the Sunday evening attack.
He faces multiple charges including attempted first-degree murder and aggravated assault on a police officer. It was not immediately clear whether Holcomb is represented by an attorney who could comment on his behalf.
Vernon Parish Sheriff Sam Craft said deputies were at a home to serve a warrant when the man threatened them with a machete.

So, the deputies were at a home when the man threatened them with a machete. Where were they when the man stabbed a deputy with a machete???
Oh, never mind. No grammar police here. No word usage police either. Neither. Whatever.

There may be a grammatical error in the writing of this story, but if so, it isn’t so egregious that it set off my Grammar Nazi Alert.

A machete is just a long knife. Don’t mean you can take one to a gunfight.
