Summarised from 2 outlets · Updated 23 Oct, 22:32 · Archive
An Omaha man was arrested after refusing to surrender a small dagger resembling a character's weapon from the anime 'Naruto' at courthouse security.
Tony Carter, 32, was arrested at Douglas County courthouse in Omaha on Thursday after refusing to relinquish a small letter opener shaped like a dagger from the anime series 'Naruto'. According to the Douglas County Sheriff's Office, which provides security to the courthouse, screening officers stopped Carter as he attempted to bring the item into the building.
Courthouse security informed Carter that the object was considered a weapon and could not be brought inside. No weapons of any kind are permitted within the courthouse complex. Carter was given multiple opportunities to resolve the situation: he could leave the building to secure the item elsewhere before returning, or he could surrender it to security.
Carter refused both options and was arrested. He was booked into Douglas County Corrections on charges of obstruction, resisting arrest, and for a bench warrant, and missed his scheduled court date as a result.
