Massachusetts man in gas mask pepper sprays officers in courthouse near Boston, video shows
[FoxNews] A Massachusetts man wearing a gas mask and tactical gear was captured on video walking into a courthouse in a Boston suburb and attacking several people with pepper spray on Monday.

Nicholas Akerberg, 28, of Yarmouth Port, entered Woburn District Court and deployed pepper spray at multiple court officers, a police officer and an assistant district attorney, the Middlesex district attorney's office said in a statement.

Security footage from the courthouse shows a man wearing a helmet, gas mask, tactical boots and sunglasses walk up to the building as a court officer opens the front door. The man is then seen spraying pepper spray at the officer and barging into the courthouse.

Other officers inside the courthouse tackled the man to the ground, according to the video. Akerberg punched, shoved and assaulted multiple people before several officers subdued him, the officials said.

Akerberg was ordered to be held at a Monday arraignment. His bail was revoked, and he was ordered to undergo a competency evaluation.
Sounds like they expect to find out he’s nuts then, rather than merely vicious.

#1 We brats were always amused to hear Mom say "Woburn," not that she had much occasion to. Sounded like Barney Frank ordering a reuben (which was of course perfectly correct Masshole, but how were we to know?). What wouldn't I give now to hear her read a random page from a gazetteer of the Commonwealth?
