NORWAY, Maine (AP) - A teenager from Waterford who was wanted by police flagged down a car to get away, but it turned out to be an unmarked cruiser, which took him straight to jail.

 

Monday's episode began when 19-year-old Travis Horan allegedly gave someone else's name and then bolted from police after being stopped for speeding in Norway. Police from four agencies searched the area but came up short.

 

About an hour later, Horan was picked up by a Norway detective in an unmarked cruiser and arrested. He was charged with operating without a license, lying about his identity and violating bail conditions. He was also held on two outstanding warrants.

Woman Shoots Herself While Trying to Kill Mice

 

POTTER VALLEY, Calif. — A Mendocino County woman who was trying to kill mice in her trailer with a gun ended up shooting herself and another person.

 

The 43-year-old woman pulled out her .44-caliber Magnum revolver after she saw the mice scurrying across the floor of her trailer on Highway 20 in Potter Valley, sheriff's officials said.

 

But she accidentally dropped the gun, which went off as it struck the floor. The bullet went through the woman's kneecap, bounced off the keys sitting on the belt loop of a 42-year-old man in the trailer and grazed the man's groin before ending up in his coin pocket.

 

Authorities did not release the shooting victims' names.

 

The mice escaped the shooting unharmed.

A Boston firefighter reportedly suffering from career-ending injury was caught on a home video participating in a bodybuilding contest, according to MyFOXBoston.com.

 

The firefighter, Albert Arroyo, placed eighth in the May 3 competition — two months after falling on the job and severely injuring his back, the TV station reported. Arroyo had presented the city with a doctor's note saying he should be given accidental disability retirement because he is totally and permanently disabled.

 

"It is common sense when you look at Mr. Arroyo that he is in better shape than most of the guys in the Boston Fire Department," Fire Commissioner Roderick Fraser told the station. "To say that he can't physically be an inspector in my opinion is ludicrous."

Police: 'Greatest Dad' shirt worn to sex meeting

33-year-old man thought he was meeting 14-year-old, police say

 

NOVI, Mich. - A 33-year-old Michigan man is accused of wearing a "World's Greatest Dad" shirt to a meeting for sex with what he thought was a 14-year-old girl.

 

Daniel Allen Everett of Clarkston was arraigned Tuesday in Novi on charges of child sexual abuse and using the Internet to attempt child sexual abuse.

 

A jail official said it isn't known whether Everett has a lawyer.

 

A spokesman for Attorney General Mike Cox could not confirm whether Everett has children. But Cox said in a statement that the arrest is a reminder that "a parent can pose a threat to our children."

Break-in suspects found asleep on stolen goods APposted: 4 HOURS 59 MINUTES AGOcomments: 2PrintShareText SizeAAAMONROE, Wash. -Police say a trail of pillows and backpacks led to two sleeping men who were arrested after a department store break-in. Kyle Burress, 25, and Allen Pierce, 27, have been charged with second-degree burglary.

Police spokeswoman Debbie Willis says a break-in was discovered July 9 at a Fred Meyer department store northeast of Seattle. The two were still being held on bail Monday, and it was not clear whether they had lawyers.

Willis says police followed a trail of cardboard and items from storage containers in a locked area behind the store that led to the two men. One was sleeping in a stolen hammock and the other on a pile of stolen pillows.

Police photographed the men before waking and arresting them.

Willis says alcohol was involved.

 

Alcohol was involved. What a shocker!!!.......

Man allegedly leaves pregnant girlfriend in chase

 

ESSEX, Vt. - A motorist led police on a chase that ended when his vehicle hit a tree and he fled, leaving his pregnant girlfriend behind, authorities said. A police officer who suspected the man of speeding tried to pull him over early Monday.

 

Lt. Robin Hollwedel said the man then lead officers on a short chase in which his vehicle clipped a house and rammed a tree.

 

"He hit the corner of it. The tree stopped him more than the house did," Hollwedel said.

 

The man then got out and fled on foot, leaving his girlfriend — who is 8 months pregnant — in the car, according to Hollwedel. The woman, whose name wasn't released, was unhurt but was taken to a hospital as a precaution.

 

The man, whose driver's license is suspended, made a voluntary appearance at police headquarters along with his attorney later Monday.

 

He was cited for careless and negligent operation of a motor vehicle, attempting to elude a law enforcement officer and a probation violation before being released, police said.

:P

Man accused of pumping aviation fuel into car

 

SAN JOSE, Calif. - Maybe he thought it would make his car fly.

 

A 20-year-old man is accused of breaking into a small airport and trying to fill up his car's gas tank with aviation gasoline.

 

"We've had people try and steal gas here in the past," said Jim Meide, who works at Reid-Hillview Airport. "It's really stupid. Put aviation gas in your car and it's so heavily leaded that eventually your valves warp and you'll end up with some very expensive repairs."

 

The suspect was arrested Sunday night on suspicion of driving while intoxicated and attempted theft. But he probably wasn't trying to save money.

 

The aviation fuel in the pumps used for aircraft and race cars was going for $5.97 a gallon, accessed only by a credit card, authorities said.

 

"Sometimes," Meide said, "these people have the notion that since it's racing fuel it'll make their car go faster."

 

Airport officials are investigating the security breach.

 

"This is an authorized area and he was driving around on the field where any airplane has the right of way," Meide said. "It could have been very dangerous if he had pulled in front of a taxiing plane."

 

:P

 

it's family guy all over again lol

Fla. man dials 911, complains his sub had no sauce APposted: 3 HOURS 46 MINUTES AGOcomments: 5PrintShareText SizeAAAJACKSONVILLE, Fla. -The sauce for a spicy Italian sandwich was apparently a must have for one Florida man. The man, Reginald Peterson, called 911 twice after a sandwich shop left off the sauce.

Peterson initially called the emergency number Thursday so that officers could have his subs made correctly, according to a police report. The second call was to complain that police officers weren't arriving fast enough.

Subway workers told police that Peterson, 42, became belligerent and yelled when they were fixing his order. They locked him out of the store when he left to call police.

When officers arrived, they tried to calm Peterson and explain the proper use of 911. Those efforts failed, and he was arrested on a charge of making false 911 calls.

Peterson did not have a listed phone number.

Woman cuffed, booked for not paying library fines AP

GRAFTON, Wis. -A Wisconsin woman has been arrested and booked for failing to pay her library fines.

Twenty-year-old Heidi Dalibor told the News Graphic in Cedarburg that she ignored the library's calls and letters as well as a notice to appear in court.

Still, she was surprised when officers with a warrant knocked on her door, cuffed her and took her to the police station to be fingerprinted and photographed.

Police Capt. Joe Gabrish says officers follow the same procedure with every warrant.

Library director John Hanson says a couple of dozen people are cited each year for failure to return materials or pay fines.

The incident cost Dalibor about $30 for the two overdue paperbacks. It cost her mother $172 to free her.

 

All that over $30.......
