Chicago Heights, Ill.: In mid-February a Liberty Tax
preparer pulled a gun on a customer’s boyfriend who police said
threatened to beat him up during a dispute over fees. The boyfriend, 34,
has reportedly been charged with assault after confronting the preparer
over $500 in additional fees that the girlfriend was charged for her
return. Police told reporters the preparer, 45, had a valid firearm
owner’s ID.
Kirkwood, Mo.: A 53-year-old local
man is accused of choking an H&R Block worker earlier this month
after reportedly becoming enraged about his “tax situation.” Police told
news outlets that the assailant knocked the Block employee to the
ground and is now charged with misdemeanor assault. The Block worker
reported minor injuries but did not require hospital treatment.
Deerfield Beach, Fla.:
A bullet narrowly missed the ear of preparer Michelle Merced as she sat

season] to be busy with people, not bullets, coming in,” she told news
outlets. The shooting was connected to a dispute outside her office and
police confirmed that Merced and her staff were not intended targets.
