Naples Man Brings Machete to Fistfight Over Church Donations
Church Donations are a good thing right? I can’t help but think of that classic line,” Now that’s a Knife.” I imagine that was said when a Florida man pulled out a manchette during a recent incident in Naples. It all went down on Golden Gate Parkway, where a regular argument turned into a full-blown fight between two guys… Luis Quintana and Moises Martinez. Their beef? Church tithes. Yeah, if you didn’t know a tithe is a portion of your income given to your local church. So basically an offering. Church donations.
According to NBC2, these two start throwing punches outside Quintana’s nephew’s barbershop. Family steps in, breaks up the brawl, and you think it’s over. But no, Quintana comes back later, trying to make peace. Sure, that seemed like the church going thing to do, but Martinez had different plans. Dude shows up with a machete! Uh oh! To think this is happening around the holidays too. Hasn’t this guy ever heard of goodwill towards man?
Church Donations:
Quintana’s nephew, not one to back down, grabs a butcher’s knife to defend himself. Now it’s a full-blown blade battle! Limbs catching hits left and right, chaos escalating. The sheriff’s office has to roll in and Martinez ends up getting charges for brandishing a deadly weapon. Can you believe this insanity sparked from something as seemingly innocent as a church donation? It’s a wild reminder that even in the season of giving, some people are out here turning it into the season of chaos!
