Woman Chases Husband Around House With Ax During Drunken Fight
<nsip>

LACONIA, N.H. --Police said a couple were arguing about their marriage when the wife grabbed an ax and charged at her husband, chasing him around the house.

The ax is considered a collector's item and is used for display, but investigators said it has a very sharp blade and is capable of causing serious injury or death.

Linda Masse, 50, defended herself in court Monday and called the ax a toy.

"I didn't threaten him or to kill him or anything," she said.

Investigators said that the couple had been drinking, and Masse's husband told her that he wanted to leave her. The argument then became violent, police said.

Police said that while chasing her husband, Masse destroyed several things inside their home, including a glass door and his car.

Her husband ran to a neighbor's house, where he locked the door and called police.

1. Good on him for bolting instead of picking up a weapon.

I love how that is mentioned sort of off hand like that is something that can just quickly be "destroyed"

9. perhaps that is what sparked the fight
"You can't park your car in the living room! Look what you've done to the drapes!"

"Awww, come on woman, get off my back!"

etc.

18. Scissorfight once did a song called:
"New Hampshire's All Right if You Like Fighting" and Laconia is one of the places their vocalist (a bearded hulk called Ironlung) mentioned.
