theweaselkingLet's start talking hypotheticals. You're in a restaurant. Your hot sandwich is served cold. When you complain, the manager apologises and offers to reheat that one or make you a new one. Do you accept? Ask for a refund? Or do you get yourself arrested?
A 34-year-old man, apparently angry that his $6 steak and cheese sandwich was too cold, was arrested on a charge of threatening to kill the restaurant manager Wednesday.
Police said the manager offered to reheat Devlin B. Nelson's sandwich or make him a new one when he complained. Authorities allege he instead demanded a refund, threw the sandwich at the manager, then threatened to kill her and blow up the restaurant.
Nelson, a Houston public works employee, has been relieved of his duties pending the outcome of the investigation. He remained in custody Thursday.
