On the afternoon of Sunday, May 10th, ranger Paige Ritterbusch received a
report of a suspicious person at the Limantour Beach parking area.  Upon

numerous registration violations, and he was found to be in possession of a
six inch knife concealed on his person, a wooden bat, a double barrelled
shotgun, a .30 calibre carbine, a .44 caliber revolver, and a taser mounted
