    St. Francis councilman mails fake bomb to self

    image

    ST. FRANCIS, Minn. (AP) - Police say a city council member in Minnesota mailed himself a fake grenade to gain sympathy from his constituents.

    Leroy Schaffer was cited for filing a false police report after calling St. Francis officers last week to report a suspicious package he received in the mail. Schaffer showed the officer a package postmarked from Chicago in his mailbox.

    Police say the councilman told the officer he thought it was a bomb because "he was in politics and has a lot of enemies.'' Schaffer insisted the officer open the package. And, when the officer declined, Schaffer ripped it open to reveal what looked like a real hand grenade. A note in the box said "The next one will be real.''

    When Schaffer was interviewed by detectives, he admitted driving to Chicago and mailing himself the package in order to gain sympathy from the public.
    I just hope he follows through and mails himself the REAL one too....

    A Verona man tried to steal copper pipes from a Home Depot by inserting the valuable metal into several PVC pipes then putting caps on the end, authorities said.

    Mueller was charged with third-degree shoplifting.

    Attack of Flatulence Stops Traffic in Twinsburg
    Man was taken to University Hospital after he got out of his car yelling, 'I have to fart'

    This was not your routine traffic problem.

    Twinsburg police got a call recently when a man driving on Darrow Road stopped in the middle of the road, got out and yelled "I have to fart" while running around his car.

    He then got back in a drove off. Police found him parked at the water tower.

    The man told officers he had been searching for jobs in nearby Solon. When they asked why he stopped his car in Twinsburg, he said he had to pass gas but couldn't because "it hurt too much."

    Because of the man's psychiatric history, police had the man treated at University Hospital in Twinsburg.

    Intruder Climbs In Window, Hit By Box Fan, Leaves Behind Crucial Piece Of Evidence

    OKLAHOMA CITY --Oklahoma City police said a woman fought off a home intruder with a box fan and the intruder left behind a crucial piece of evidence -- his wallet.

    Police said a mother was asleep in her room early Tuesday morning along with her six children when she woke up to 63-year-old Carl Thomas climbing in the window above her bed.

    The homeowner told police she saw two arms reaching into her room and that's when she grabbed the fan next to her bed and hit Thomas in the back.

    When Oklahoma City Police arrived they found the intruder's clothing scattered on the ground next to the window where the break-in occurred.

    Police found a leather wallet inside the pocket of the shorts, and inside they found a man's identification card.

    While police were still investigating, they overheard the neighbor's dog barking and, with their flashlight, caught a glimpse of Thomas in white boxers and socks trying to jump a fence in the 400 block of NW 79th Street.

    Although Thomas tried to run, K-9 officer's tracked him down, according to the police report. Police said Thomas was bitten by the K-9 in the process and transported to the Hospital.

    The victim was able to identify him as the man who she had seen in her window.

    The woman told police Thomas had made several attempts to date her, but she refused each time. Thomas was booked into Jail and now faces burglary charges.

    Two men enter police van to pretend they're arrested, on the upside they don't have to pretend anymore.

    image

    RADNOR, Pa. - July 18, 2011 (WPVI) -- Police say two men hoping to stage photos of an arrest locked themselves inside a Pennsylvania constable's van and ended up getting arrested for real.

    Radnor Police say that 21-year-old Ryan Letchford and 22-year-old Jeffrey Olson were arrested early Saturday when a friend called 911 to report the men were trapped.

    The Marlton, N.J., men left a party and allegedly got into the van so they could take photos of themselves pretending to be arrested. Investigators say a friend discovered the men inside the van but couldn't unlock it and called police.

    Both men were arraigned on charges of theft, public drunkenness and criminal mischief and posted bail. Phone listings for them could not immediately be located.

    Man burned while siphoning gas with leaf blower

    image

    SEMINOLE -- Officials said a Seminole man was seriously burned in an explosion while siphoning gas from a car with a leaf blower.

    Pinellas County Sheriff's Spokesperson Tom Nestor said Joseph P. Williamson, 31, was working on the fuel lines of the 1997 Saturn belonging to his girlfriend, Sommer M. Brocuglio, 34, outside their home on 61st Avenue N when the gas ignited.

    Investigators said Williamson found the gas lid open and became concerned the vehicle had been tampered with, and so he was trying to check the gas tank for sugar.

    Witnesses said Williamson was trying to siphon gas with an electric leaf blower when a spark from the blower ignited the fire, the report said.

    Williamson suffered serious burns to his arms and had to be taken to Tampa General Hospital.

    Firefighters Pull Stuck Man From Drain

    image

    CERES, Calif. (CBS13) – Police and firefighters worked together to dislodge a 21-year-old man from a storm drain Thursday morning after he became stuck while trying to retrieve his belongings, authorities said.

    The Ceres Department of Public Safety said Jared Medeiros was trapped halfway in a manhole on the 2200 block of Hale Aloha Way for at least 40 minutes before a witness was alerted by his cries for help and called police at about 2:20 a.m.

    Neighbor Christina Nieves said the man’s thrashing legs were the only part of his body that was visible, and she had a hard time explaining the situation to emergency dispatchers.

    “I see feet dangling and she’s like, ‘Really?’” Nieves said.

    Police arrived first at the scene and were unsuccessful in their attempts to pull Medeiros free, but firefighters with special netting equipment were finally able to safely pull him free.

    Authorities said Medeiros told them at the scene that he had dropped his belongings into the drain and was stuck trying to reach for it, but Medeiros told his wife and CBS13 he had been jumped by gang members and badly beaten.

    The attackers threw his cell phone into the drain, Medeiros claimed. The man said he has no recollection of how he became stuck or the circumstances surrounding his rescue.

    Medeiros’ wife told CBS13 he was highly intoxicated and didn’t know why he didn’t tell police about the alleged attack.

    Medeiros said he suffered painful head injuries during the incident and should have been hospitalized, but firefighters said he refused treatment at the scene.

    Texas Man Is All Made Up With Nowhere To Go. But Jail.

    image

    Meet Zyah Jonas.

    The 48-year-old Texan was arrested last week after he allegedly exposed himself and masturbated in front of patrons--including at least one child--at a Houston park.

    At the time of the incident Jonas was reportedly wearing a blue dress, which likely set off his red lips very nicely and also made it easier for witnesses to identify him to cops.

    Jonas, pictured above in a Harris County Sheriff’s Office mug shot, was charged with sexual abuse of a child and jailed on $30,000 bond.

    image Man attempts to repair hernia with butter knife>> GLENDALE, Calif. - Police say a Southern California man stuck a butter knife into his belly in a failed bid at self-surgery to repair a painful hernia. Glendale police Sgt. Tom Lorenz says officers called to the 63-year-old man's home Sunday night found him naked on an outside patio lounge chair with a 6-inch butter knife sticking out of his stomach. The sergeant says that while waiting for paramedics, the man pulled out the knife and stuffed a cigarette he was smoking into the wound. Lorenz said Tuesday that the man wasn't screaming or complaining about pain. The man was placed on a psychiatric hold and taken to a hospital. His name isn't being released. Lorenz says the man's wife told officers her husband was upset about the hernia.

    Blonde + Bentley = One expensive fender bender

    image

    image

    The wealthy French Riviera city state of Monaco was the scene of a pileup involving five luxury cars with an estimated value of more than $1.1 million.

    The collision, involving a Bentley Azure (worth an estimated $400,000), a Mercedes S Class ($120,000), a Ferrari F430 ($230,000), an Aston Martin Rapide ($230,000) and a Porsche 911 ($130,000), occurred in front of Monaco's Place du Casino, according to Sky News.

    The British TV network reported that the incident began when the Bentley scraped the side of the Mercedes before plowing into the Ferrari. Then, the Bentley proceeded to run into the Aston Martin and the Porsche.

    Hundreds of tourists quickly descended on the scene, snapping photos of the drivers' misfortune.

    The Daily Mail newspaper quoted Ruud Poot, editor of European motoring website Autogespot, as saying: "You probably couldn’t find a worse place in the world to crash your car than outside Monaco’s Place du Casino in the middle of the summer."

    Caped crusader Roger Hayhurst's antics worry his mum
    By day, he is a mild-mannered gardener but, when night falls, teenager Roger Hayhurst turns into crime-fighting superhero Knight Warrior.

    Mr Hayhurst, who wears a custom-made £200 blue-and-black Lycra costume – which his mum helped him buy from a firm in America – says his only special power is a supernatural desire to make the world a better place.

    ‘When people see me coming up, it does tend to stun them into silence,’ he said.

    ‘I just carry on trying to get them to calm down, and eventually most of them do. If I think things are getting a bit hairy, I just back off and phone the police.

    'They know what I am doing and have been very kind to me. Some of my friends think I am a bit odd but all I want to do is try and get people to like each other. I just want to do good in the world.’

    Mr Hayhurst said his main aim was to sort out rows between people coming out of pubs or simply fighting on the streets. He lives with his mother Jennifer, 61, and grandad Alfred, 91, and also hands out clothing and food parcels to the homeless in Manchester city centre.

    Mrs Hayhurst said she was always ‘slightly worried’ when her son went out – usually between 9pm and 2am, at least three times a week.

    ‘His absolute genuineness is his best defence,’ she said. ‘He is one of the kindest young men I know.’
