Bar Patrons Duct-Taped Rowdy Customer

Published January 29, 2015 at 7:18 AM EST

STEVE INSKEEP, HOST:

Good morning. I'm Steve Inskeep with a free advertisement for duct tape. You really could not make this up. A man was kicked out of a bar in Florence, Mont. Witnesses say he returned to that bar and tried to hit the bartender with a glass. But she grabbed his arm, and the man was no match for the rest of the clientele. Other customers wrestled the man to the ground, and in the absence of handcuffs, they duct taped his wrists until police could arrive. You are listening to MORNING EDITION.

Federal funding is gone.

Congress has eliminated all funding for public media.

That means $2.1 million per year that Connecticut Public relied on to deliver you news, information, and entertainment programs you enjoyed is gone.

The future of public media is in your hands.

All donations are appreciated, but we ask in this moment you consider starting a monthly gift as a Sustainer to help replace what’s been lost.
