PARIS, July 18, 2006 (AFP) - A Paris judge has been sent to a psychiatric hospital after going on a drunken rampage with a Masonic sword, legal sources said on Tuesday. Police were called to the home of Philippe Bonnet of the Paris appeals court after a guest staying there alerted them to his unusual behaviour. He attacked the two officers with the sword, slightly injuring one, before being overpowered with a flash-ball, a non-lethal weapon used by French police. He was then taken to a psychiatric hospital. Two weeks previously, the judge had threatened his host with the weapon during a party he attended. He was placed under judicial investigation and given a conditional release. A legal source said the chief prosecutor for Paris had since launched disciplinary procedures to have the judge temporarily suspended.

The report is in error: He must have immediately thrown the sword down when confronted by any kind of armed opposition at all.

At least he didn't just surrender. I think this is a good thing for the French.

Is a Masonic Sword a +3 weapon or +4? Did he get additional attacking power by using his potion?

New headline:"Last French Man arrested, went down swinging, authorities used Fireball"

Sounds sort of like some parties I've attended. I've learned to avoid drunken magistrates swinging swords. Call it a life lesson.
