Law enforcement responded to Boone’s house where they found him brandishing a baseball bat which he used to hit a cat and destroy other items in his house. Boone’s wife reported he came home intoxicated and after a fight ensued, Boone retrieved the bat from his car and began swinging it. Boone’s children also alleged he threatened to hit police with it, as well.
