Man in Stand-Off with Police Demands to Marry Paris Hilton
A SWAT team called to extract a disorderly man who had barricaded himself inside a hotel room in Belmont, North Carolina, was met with some unusual demands.
61-year-old Fredrick Denney threatened to open fire on officers if he wasn't promptly supplied with a pizza. Additionally, he told negotiators he wanted to marry Paris Hilton.
The entire second floor of the Hampton Inn was shut down as authorities attempted to talk Denney out of the room for several hours, but to no avail. He was ultimately pepper sprayed and arrested.
Police records show Denney, who is originally from Oregon, has clashed with SWAT teams across multiple states.
He was formally charged with being "intoxicated and disorderly" and is currently undergoing a psychological evaluation.
