Bill Cady, The Early Years … by Bill Cady 296<br />

citizen‟s arrest and was gonna call it in on his CB radio. He said when the sheriff sent a<br />

car to take me into custody, I‟d learn not to fuck around in Shiawassee <strong>Count</strong>y after this.<br />

Then the dumb ass turned around and started toward his car, after turning my car<br />

off and taking the keys. He didn‟t turn off my protection system, however, and it went to<br />

work as soon as he started away from me. Thug hit him on the dead run and immediately<br />

gashed his left arm with those big teeth. Instead of being smart enough to shoot my dog<br />

with the pistol in his hand, the moron started backing away toward his truck.<br />

I followed for a moment, strongly considering pulling my straight razor and<br />

cutting him all four ways: long, deep, wide and repeatedly. Then I saw a slightly more<br />

peaceable solution behind him.<br />

Darting to his black pickup truck, I pulled a short-handled general purpose shovel<br />

with a flat pan on it loose and swung it like a Louisville slugger. The clang it made on<br />

the back of his head was what I had to call a “ringing endorsement” of his ability as a<br />

peace officer. He hit the ground with a thud, out like a light, and I had to pull Thug off<br />

before the moron lost any more blood. I secured my keys from his pocket, tossed his<br />

keys and gun out into a field, and we got back in my car.<br />

It was a few months before I cruised those back roads again. Too much grief in<br />

Shiawassee <strong>Count</strong>y for my way of thinking. To be honest, I thought I might‟ve killed<br />

him. Yet, when no news stories said anything, and I saw no likely obituaries, I calmed<br />

down after a time.<br />

One of my favorite places to drink, when I went out to a bar, was the Willow Bar.<br />

If it‟s still in existence, it was changed to DeLuca‟s Restaurant in the late 80s and became<br />

a pretty nice place to eat.<br />
