A Florida man was arrested after threatening a friend with a machete over an unflushed toilet.

Keith Mounts, 46, of Hudson was detained last week by officers from the Pasco Sheriff’s Office, reports Newsweek.

The victim claimed Mounts pointed the knife in his face and said he would “chop” him over the bad bathroom etiquette, according to the arrest report posted by The Smoking Gun.

A Pasco Sheriff’s Office spokesperson told Newsweek: “The suspect didn’t flush and when the victim called him on it, the suspect threatened him with a machete.”

The machete was reportedly found in the yard of the suspect’s home, where the incident happened.

Mounts gave a very short written statement which stated: “[Expletive] happened.”
