Police: Shots fired at men cutting grass in Armstrong County

Quote
Police said they investigated a report of someone firing shots at two landscapers as they cut grass in the area of 135 Hillview Lane around 11 a.m.
…
Police said investigators traced the gunshots to Joseph Michael Riederer, 31, who lives at the Hillview Lane address near where the landscapers had been working.

While at Riederer’s home, police said they saw marijuana plants and processed marijuana. A search warrant served at the residence later that day turned up 76 marijuana plants, processed marijuana, materials used to grow marijuana plants and three guns.

He faces drug and assault charges...

He knows that "grass" is just a euphemism for marijuana, right?

When Taco Bell runs out of tacos, who do you call? One person reportedly called the police

Quote
When a Louisiana Taco Bell allegedly ran out of tacos, a consumer called the city's police department to report the "travesty."

The Slidell Police Department took to its Facebook page Monday to share "another 'we can’t make this stuff up' story."

"Somebody called in to complain that the Taco Bell on Gause Boulevard ran out of both hard and soft taco shells," the post said. "While this is truly a travesty, the police can’t do anything about this."

There was a elderly woman in the small town in which we used to live who regularly called 911 whenever she was out of cigarettes.

Why is it I think the squirrel had more working brain cells than the speed freak?

Florida sheriff's deputy detained a tortoise for blocking the road. He got away with a warning and a selfie

Quote
Florida law enforcement detained a slow-moving Florida native after the suspect refused to clear the road when asked.

The gopher tortoise was walking along Nocatee Parkway, north of St. Augustine, when St. Johns County Sheriff's Deputy L. Fontenot spotted it during a routine patrol.

When asked to clear the road, the suspect, identified as "Gopherus Genus," age unknown, continued its stroll.

Fontenot quickly detained the suspect. The St. Johns County Sheriff's Office said in a statement that the two had a "heartfelt conversation regarding this risky behavior" and the suspect was "released on his own recognizance.".

WICHITA FALLS, Texas – Wichita Falls police banned a woman from Walmart after she reportedly ate half of a cake and refused to pay for the uneaten half, according to the Wichita Falls Times Record News.

Police responded to a theft call June 25 at the Walmart; they were told a woman entered the store, ate half of a cake and refused to pay for the other half when asked.

According to the Times Record News, the woman was banned from the store by police for the theft.

This is not the first time a Wichita Falls Walmart has been forced to ban a customer this year.

In January, a woman was banned from a Wichita Falls Walmart for reportedly drinking wine out of a Pringles can while riding around on an electric shopping cart.
