There's trouble in Lake County where a pair of drunk off-duty sheriff's correctional officers were apparently trying to pick fights at Richard's Chicken and Ribs early Thursday morning. While they didn't succeed, witnesses told police one of the officers pulled out a knife and told patrons of the bar, "you can't touch us," while patrons shouted insults back, including, "You're just a glorified security guard."
