Ohio woman, 75, accused of beating a fawn to death after finding it in her garden

Wednesday, July 8th, 2009

Talk about a cold, heartless old woman.   How could anyone beat a faw to death.  I don’t even think Darth Vader would do that to crush the rebellion.

Fawn_2[1]EUCLID, Ohio (AP) — A 75-year-old woman was accused of beating a fawn to death after finding it in the garden of her home near a wooded park. Dorothy Richardson was charged in a warrant with animal cruelty on June 15 at her home. Euclid animal control officer Ann Mills requested the warrant.

Euclid’s cruelty to animals charge is a first-degree misdemeanor punishable by up to six months in jail and a $1,000 fine.

Richardson has not yet appeared in court. A telephone message was left for her Wednesday.

Connecticut man shows up naked and late for dental appointment

Wednesday, July 8th, 2009

I know going to the dentist is scary but so much so that it would scare the shirt, pants and underwear off of you?   What a weenie!

STRATFORD, Conn. (AP) — Police say a Connecticut man has been arrested because he showed up at a dental office naked. Police say 41-year-old Christopher Hoff, of Stratford, also was five days late for his appointment. Authorities said Hoff entered Optimus Dental’s office Monday with nothing on. A startled female receptionist screamed, and he ran away.

 Officers went to his home, and Hoff told them he had been sleeping all day. Police took Hoff to the dental office, where the receptionist identified him.

 Hoff was charged with disorderly conduct, public indecency and failure to comply with fingerprinting.

 He did not immediately return a telephone message left Wednesday at his home. It’s unclear if he has an attorney.

Mexican thieves take fake display cell phones

Wednesday, July 8th, 2009

Crime doesn’t pay and plastic fake cell phones don’t make calls.  You would think these bozo’s would at least have scoped out the store before breaking in.  They win a living Darwin, congrats!  I’ve included a paper cutout for an iphone to save other thieves from committing this crime.

Print, cut out, tape together

Print, cut out, tape together

MORELIA, Mexico (AP) — Call it the case of the dead cells – both telephones and the ones in the brain. Employees at a Telefonica Movistar cell-phone store in Morelia, Mexico say they arrived Tuesday morning to find that the store had been broken into.

An examination of the shop revealed the only items missing were hollow replica phones for display that are completely useless for making calls.

Employees say the clueless thieves overlooked real cell phones and cash in another part of the shop.

Store owners nonetheless reported the theft to local police, who are investigating.
