Portland ME
South Portland police were notified around 9 a.m. that a man wearing a rubber Osama bin Laden mask was standing on top of a berm along the highway carrying a sign that said “I Love Tabor,” [a reference to the Taxpayer Bill of Rights on the ballot] and waving what appeared to be an assault rifle.Four South Portland officers and two state troopers converged on the man. They drew their guns when he did not respond to their demand that he drop his weapon.
Police said instead he walked toward them dropping plastic hand grenades. His costume included fake dynamite and bandoliers, police said.
He eventually did drop the rifle, which turned out to be a toy and was arrested, at which time the man was identified as ...Thomas J. Connolly, of Scarborough, a prominent defense attorney and 1998 Democratic candidate for governor
