Minden dentist arrested after confronting construction crew

MINDEN, Nev. (AP) -- A Minden dentist faces assault and battery charges for allegedly confronting a construction crew with boxing gloves and a heavy chain.

Douglas Moss, 42, was released on his own recognizance earlier this week after appearing in East Fork Justice Court.

"This is at worst an allegation that someone had too much to drink and acted in an aberrant manner," said Moss' lawyer, Tod Young.

According to authorities, a construction worker said Moss showed up at a job site around noon Monday, wearing boxing gloves and carrying a heavy chain over his shoulder.

The crew was working down the street from Moss' home.

The worker said Moss appeared angry and intoxicated when he assumed a boxing stance and lunged at crew members.

Moss allegedly punched the man and started swinging the chain, but another crew member yanked it away from him.

Does any part of this story seem a mite strange?

Just checking....

I'd need to know why he was so mad before I'd call it strange.

Now the way he handled it, getting drunk, boxing gloves and chain were inappropriate, but what caused the anger?

The law doesn't really care what caused his anger. Whatever caused it is no excuse for the way he conducted himself.

He's a drunk idiot. End of story.

The purpose of boxing gloves is to do less damage to the person you are fighting.

The purpose of the chain is to do more damage.

I sure don't get it.

Sounds like he brought a chain to a nail gun fight.


And, can you provide a link?

Boxing gloves protect the hand; sapper gloves work better, without coddling the opponent.

Yes, I do believe that priviledge belongs to me.

After all, there's sort of a couple of other people who occasionally fill in for me. Who else is there here who has these crazy stories?

[scratches head, pondering deeply]
