Just another tough Friday night in NYC…

Via Daily Mail:

Justin Long, a panhandler also known as ‘Weed Guy’ who carries a sign around Times Square that states ‘I need money for weed’, has stabbed another panhandler, ‘Beer Guy’ (‘I need beer’, says Wayne Semancik’s sign) in the head with a pen on Friday night.

The whole sorry incident was witnessed by two men, who despite being dressed as Alien and Predator, respectively, turned out to be credible witnesses.

Times Square is always a little weird, with its flashing billboards blinding you, throngs of tourists, and fortunately for Beer Guy, lots of police officers.

In what some are calling an outbreak of reefer madness, Weed Guy spat at his beer-loving nemesis.

Beer Guy became enraged. ‘When you spit in my face, darling, I’m going to hit you,’ Beer Guy told NY1.

‘I don’t care who you are, how big you are, I’m going to hit you,’ he said.

‘So the man, he pulled out a pen because I was hitting him, and he started stabbing me in the face, and I have five stab wounds in my face right now.’

Weed Guy’s actions stand in stark contrast to his fellow mellow stoners, indicating he was perhaps not having a successful evening.

Police arrested Justin Long, aka Weed Guy, and Semancik was treated for lacerations to his face at the scene.

It isn’t known what Long will be charged with yet, but according to Alien and Predator, the dispute was some kind of turf war.

If Weed and Beer can’t get along, at least there’s some kind of truce between Alien and Predator.
