A Greensburg (Pa.) man was convicted Tuesday of using a 2-pound concrete garden gnome as a deadly weapon in a February attack against his 16-year-old stepdaughter.The gnome, about a foot tall, wore a hat, a blue shirt over a bulging stomach and a wide grin as it sat on a table in open court throughout the two-day trial.The defendant and the weapon were separated by about 2 feet of table, with the gnome facing the defendant. Good thing this didn't happen in the Wilkes-Barre/Scranton area. There are some crazy garden gnomes in that neck of the woods.
