Once Shorn, Half-Bearded Arrestee Returns To His Roots

Ha... I don't know why Sal's photo is so popular. He's quite a character... I kinda cut my losses about him swiping three of my packs of cigarettes off the bar at the Pool Hall (when it was still open on Central in St. Pete), and surrendering pitchers of beer to him after he'd walk up and drink out of them (I didn't quite know how to psychologically deal with that kind of dickery). Last Christmas (at Fubar in St. Pete, FL), he was allowed in despite previous trouble making there, in the spirit of Christmas... He got a big beer in a big glass (which he refilled from other's pitchers when they weren't looking) and muttered to himself for about an hour. It didn't take him long until for some unknown reason, he chucked the glass across the bar, and the thick bottom of it smashed against an unexpected patron's head (right near her temple, I still wish she would've went to the hospital and got a scan). I watched when he did it, but I think the whole bar was kinda frozen for a moment in horror. Sal just walked briskly to the door, and once outside, ran down Central to 9th street while folks followed him to keep the police updated.
