Police arrest man who 'saved' Obama

Police found Galloway, who told them someone at the side of the store put a gun at his head. However, he told officers that he is “proficient at martial arts” and “kicked the man’s –ss.”

He also told police that he “works for Washington” and has “been overseas killing terrorists.” More recently, he said, he was walking across Arizona carrying a child and killing terrorists. He also reported saving President Obama’s life not once, not twice, but four times, and that his Social Security number and identification were stolen in Alabama, Georgia and Tennessee.

Meanwhile, a customer told police that he saw Galloway on the side of the store, “talking to and fighting with himself.”

A check into the federal database revealed that Galloway is wanted for a Jan. 17 assault with a deadly weapon in California, and he was taken to the Jackson County Jail pending extradition.
