Michael Smith of Maine went outside shirtless after being awakened one morning, yelling at a tree removal company to get off his property.The workers thought they saw a gun in his waistband and called police. Smith, who’d gone back to bed, was woken again minutes later – this time by Maine State Police at his front door, backed up by a group of troopers with assault rifles in his driveway. They were asking him via a megaphone to come out of his house. Smith did have a gun, but it was tattooed on his stomach. No charges will be filed against Smith, but police said they always take reports of a gun or threat seriously.
