Officers said Glynn was still inside the home when they arrived. They made contact with him through a landline and he advised officers that he was unable to walk out of the apartment due to a disability, records show.
Officers went into the apartment and said they found Glynn sitting on a couch with a sword and a wooden scabbard next to him. Glynn was cuffed and read his Miranda right, but, investigators said he then confessed to the stabbing, stating that if had better aim he would have “gut him (the victim).”
