A San Diego newspaper published an article this week about a numismatic author's altercation with a neighbor.

A penny for your thoughts? Myron Michael Kliman, a 77-year-old coin dealer from Laguna Niguel, wrote the book on them.
But police aren't sure what he was thinking when he was arrested following a knife attack Saturday night.
Police were called at 8:40 p.m. to the 24900 block of La Plata Drive. Kliman's neighbor told police her husband had been assaulted when his hand was cut with a knife.
According to the police supervisor's log, neighbor Sean Harper was confronted at home by Kliman over a pine needle dispute.
After detaining both men, police arrested Kliman, author of "The Two Cent Pieces and Varieties."
He was later released after posting an undisclosed bail.

Is this a case of a knowledgeable reporter who knows numismatic literature, or a lazy reporter who just Googled a name that showed up on the police blotter?
