Well, here we are again at the end of yet another workweek—but just look at what happened to these guys and gals…
First, some odds and ends…
Snakes can…what?
Near Harrisburg, Pennsylvania, a multi-vehicle crash closed down Interstate 83…due to a leak from a tractor-trailer… ah, and what a leak…
In Osceola County, Florida, the Sheriff’s Office has been promoting a unique Valentine’s Day gift…for exes…
In Federal Way, Washington, an unnamed woman left the Dollar Store here… with a giant bundle of red, white, and pink helium-filled mylar balloons…too many, apparently, to fit in her car…so what did she do?
And now for the main “events”:
In Allentown, Pennsylvania, Tony and Frances Toto have just celebrated their 57th wedding anniversary…but as many couples can attest, they hit some rough spots along the way…. And we’re talking some REALLY rough spots…
In Houston, Texas, Allen Lynch Jr., 23, got pulled over for driving with a set of expired temporary license tags…and Allen recorded that incident…and then, before having had the issue resolved, pulled away…quickly…and recorded that…and continued to record his escape from the police…and then recorded his commentary AFTER getting away, commenting “I got away. Round of applause. Round of applause”…and then added “You think I’m going to make their job easier?... Their job is to catch us. Our job is to run away”… well, speaking of making their job easier…
In Clearfield, Pennsylvania, Jordan Graham, 30, allegedly stole a woman’s silver Chevy… though it didn’t take law enforcement long to catch him… see, the car had a manual transmission… and Jordan? Well, you can guess the limitations of his driver’s acumen…
In Bloomington, Indiana, Austin Bristoe, 26, wanted to discourage thieves from stealing from his car…and, while undoubtedly effective, his methods seem a little…extreme…
In Carlisle, Pennsylvania, Jimmie L. Phillips, 39, was driving around five marked patrol cars (and an ambulance) around 1:20 a.m. recently…and then he struck one of the aforementioned vehicles…leading the police to check on him…sure enough, "he was found to be intoxicated by alcohol and controlled substances”… and that wasn’t the end of things…
And finally, in Cape Coral, Florida, Lee County Sheriff’s deputies were driving along…and spotted a black Mercedes-Benz parked in the opposite lane… just sitting there…lights on… so the officers crept behind the car… flicked on their flashing lights…and tried to determine if the vehicle might have been abandoned…when inside they found Michael Sereda, 40, sitting by himself…in the passenger seat…now, beer cans littered the vehicle’s floor…and lined the front cup holders…in fact, 24-packs of Michelob Ultra and Bud Light were torn into…and drained…the deputies attempted to strike up a conversation…but Michael was “unable to speak”…due to his level of intoxication…they called for backup…and then, they heard…this…
Have a GREAT Presidents’ Day weekend, folks! We’ll be off on Monday—but see you back here on Tuesday!
