Man Charged In 3-Butcher Knife Home Invasion
May 27, 2011
An Escambia County man is charged in a home invasion in which deputies say he entered the home swinging three butcher knives.
Escambia County Sheriff’s deputies arrested Michael Scott Elliot, 50, early Wednesday evening on a charge of armed burglary and two counts of aggravated assault with a deadly weapon.
Officers responded to a report of a home invasion in the 2900 block of W. Lloyd St. at approximately 8 p.m. Once officers arrived at the location of the call, it became evident that Elliot had fled scene.
The victim stated that a friend had gone to open the front door of the residence to take out the trash and Elliot was standing at the door. Elliot then entered the home swinging three butcher knives, yelling “I’m going to kill you all”, according to the Sheriff’s Office.
The victim started to call 911 and Elliot backed out of the front door, jumped in his car and sped off.
Deputies located Elliot’s vehicle at his home in the 700 block of Citrus Street. He was booked into the Escambia County Jail on $60,000 bond.

“He came in swinging THREE butcher knives? One in each hand?”
I’d wondered at the mechanics of the operation, myself. Now it makes sense.

what is this world coming to?!?! people like this is the reason we are ALWAYS armed at our house! come into my house and i guarentee you won’t be walking away!! if everybody would stay armed, we could weed out trash like this breaking into homes!! people are so crazy these days!
the wonders never cease! crime is worse than ever now and home invasions are on the rise. people need to protect themselves and their families. you almost need to carry a gun all the time. This is why I always look out the window prior to opening the door. this does not guarantee I will be safe but it gives me a little warning if there is anything out there. I am glad these people wer not injured.
If the homeowners had been armed, we wouldn’t have to concern ourselves with this Mr. Elliott ever again.
Thank god this man is behind bars, I personally think there needs to be a without bond on this crap.
