Columbus, OH: 80 year-old woman w/knife + Whitehall Police [Video]

August 2nd, outside of the Whitehall Walmart, an 80 year old woman; wielding a small knife was seen as a threat to the officers on the scene as well as the surrounding citizens. Using a wristlock the female officer subdues the woman by slamming her to the ground.  On the one hand, this elderly woman does have a knife and can inflict damage with a weapon. On the other hand, really? Slamming her to the ground?

I'm posting this crazy late and I have to get sleep...if there is anyone who has more info on how this began [and how it ended] I am sure more people would like to know.

UPDATE: Here's the NBC4 article. It turns out the 84 year old woman is struggling from dementia. [via DonnaNBC4]

Left 4 Dead 2 - Oh Boy

Yup...it was just announced earlier today during the Microsoft press conference during this year's E3 expo.  For a while I relished not being there in the shark tank vying for a good position or time with developers to score an interview. I gotta say, this trailer had me second guessing.  This was a big surprise considering Left 4 Dead just came out at the end of last year also there was a substantial update last month, so yeah...is it too soon? Don't know, but after the jump is the company shpiel as to what the background of the sequel entails and how it compares to its predecessor.

Enjoy
