Reynaldo Vargas was apparently strolling through beautiful downtown Galt, California Wednesday morning when he spotted some members of the local constabulary. Being on probation and in possession of a firearm, Reynaldo became…agitated. Or so sacbee.com tells it. “When an officer attempted to restrain Vargas, a sawed-off 12-gauge shotgun fell from Vargas’ waistband.” The patrolmen enlisted the help of a police dog to bring the reluctant parolee under control. From the look of the photogenic Mr. Vargas in his department-provided portrait (above), bringing him in seems to have been quite a tussle.
