This event happened in November. For this, John T. Stanton got a 5 day suspension in January. Authorities in Berks refuse to comment on details, but blame "personal issues" for the whole episode.

Ironically, yesterday in Berks, a man was arrested by the same sheriffs department. His crime? Making verbal threats to government caseworkers at the same government building where the sheriff purposely discharged his air gun.

Your blog says he discharged a gun but the Reading Eagle article you referenced says he sete off a canister? I couldn't read the full article because I don't have a Reading Eagle subscription. Which was it?
