If you think you’ve had a bad week, just remember—it could have been worse. Check out what happened to these guys (and gals)…
In Pipestone County, Minnesota, an unnamed 24-year-old driver (from South Dakota) was pulled over for doing 92 mph in a 60 mph zone… and minutes later for doing 115 mph in a 60 mph zone… oh, and that wasn’t the end of it…
In South Brunswick, New Jersey, a gas station attendant accepted a $100 bill for purchases by an unnamed 20-year-old who, when police caught up with him, was reportedly “surprised the clerk took the money.” Judge for yourself.
In Dunfermline, Scotland, Matthew Davies, 47, strolled into a Bank of Scotland branch here, armed with a meat cleaver, and a pillowcase to disguise his face… He was (temporarily) successful at his robbery attempt, getting away with about $400… but his attempt to effect an effective disguise… well, that wasn’t (even temporarily) successful…
In Hobe Sound, Florida, officers responded to a call about 10:10 p.m. regarding a traffic crash… arrived to find an (unnamed) 24-year-old man was standing by a 2010 Toyota with its door open… being slapped and hit by an (also unnamed) 23-year-old woman… who told investigators that she had been driving and that, at some point, her boyfriend (whose birthday it was) “made a statement she did not like” and they started quarreling… at which point she lost control of the vehicle… ah, but how she was driving is the more intriguing aspect of the story…
And, finally, in Wyandotte, Michigan, an unnamed man was travelling south… in the northbound lanes… on a bike… police pulled him over… and the bicyclist agreed to a pat-down… during the search, an officer felt a small object inside the small front pocket of his pants… asked what it was… and our wrong-way cyclist replied that he didn’t know… turned out to be a folded lottery ticket… which (who knew?) has a common use for nefarious purposes… and, indeed, it tested positive for those purposes… but the rationale the wrong-way cyclist offered for the find was… well, see for yourself…
Have a GREAT weekend, folks! Oh—tomorrow is Leap Day—and the good folks at Miller Lite are making… EVERYONE a special offer. Free beer (but read the fine print).
