This line really cracked me up. What the police expect, to be informed before hand that someone was going to shoot Machete Mack? You know the reporter is just trying to met a word quota when…
Anyway, yeah, dumbass idea taking a machete into a gun shop.
Waffles! Dem New Zealanders sure do love their kiwis.

I think the reporter just meant that no one called the police to report an armed standoff in progress, which does happen sometimes.
[quote](12 February 2003) Three men wielding knives tried to rob a slaughterhouse. But when it comes to hand to hand combat with sharp blades, butchers working in a slaughterhouse are more than a match for your average thief. They stabbed two of the intruders to death. The third man escaped from the angry butchers and fled in his car.
Police soon spotted him, and after a brief car chase, the would-be thief pulled over and leapt from his vehicle. But instead of fleeing into the underbrush, he tried to dodge heavy traffic and escape across the highway. Perhaps he thought that threatening butchers with knives was not a sufficient demonstration of his intelligence.
Within seconds, the natural justice system meted out his punishment in the form of a large truck, which struck and killed him. [/quote]
