Man Breaks 5-Iron Over Fellow Golfer, Then Stabs Him With It

A preliminary investigation found Lott had argued with a 65-year-old West Bloomfield Township man over the number of strokes the younger man had taken on a particular hole.

Lott allegedly struck the West Bloomfield Township man over the arm with his golf club, breaking the head off the club, on the 12th hole. Further enraged by his broken club — a Callaway 5-iron — Lott then allegedly stabbed the man in the arm with the shaft of the club, according to investigators.

Two other men, who were golfing with the pair as a foursome, reportedly held Lott down while the victim sped off in a golf car to the clubhouse for safety, according to a deputy's report. Lott eventually broke loose and gave chase in a second cart screaming he was "going to get him," according to witnesses.
