Once, mk and gq came to visit us in NC. My wife, daughter and I took them to the Life and Sciences museum. We got there about 20 minutes prior to the museum opening. To kill time, we went across the street to a pavilion and walked around. As we were walking back to the museum, a small asian man walking two Dachshund's was walking towards us. His face was covered in a white cream and he appeared to be sweating. We didn't think much of him until he abruptly started running very quickly towards my wife and infant daughter. As mk and I turned to see the commotion, the man changed course just prior to reaching my wife. We noticed then that in his hands he held a knife. It was as if he intended to do harm but then at the last minute thought better of it.

We quickly went back to the Museum and I found a security guard and notified him of the situation.

We were lucky nothing bad happened. It was scary and certainly creepy.
