LOVE THOSE CHOCOLATE FROSTYS

HE WAS NAKED, ON CRACK, AND IN ALLIGATOR'S MOUTH

ORLANDO, Fla. — Carlos Mayid couldn't see Adrian Apgar being attacked by an alligator early Wednesday, but he could hear him. With his cellphone in hand and a sheriff's operator on the line, Mayid left his home near Lake Parker, Fla., and walked down his street in the predawn darkness toward the screams of a man who was fighting for his life in the water. In the recording of a dramatic 911 call released Thursday, Mayid is heard breathing heavily and walking through wet grass as Apgar's repeated cries grow louder. Finally, he got close enough to yell back. "Hey. What's up? What do you need?" Mayid hollered. "A gator's got me," Apgar replied, his voice faint in the background.
Mayid's call shortly after 4 a.m. sent four Polk County, Fla., deputies racing to the 2,150-acre lake just outside Lakeland, Fla., where they jumped into the water and wrenched Apgar's arm from the gator's mouth. The 45-year-old victim, who told authorities he'd passed out nude on the shore after smoking crack cocaine, was rushed to a hospital in critical condition. Later Wednesday, state wildlife authorities trapped and killed a nearly 12-foot-long alligator thought to be the one that attacked Apgar.

WHAT???????

DANGEROUS SKIES

WICHITA, Kan. (AP/The Blaze) — The grandmother of a 4-year-old girl who became hysterical during a security screening at a Kansas airport says security agents forced her to undergo a pat-down, and even yelled at the child and called her an uncooperative suspect. The child’s grandmother, Lori Croft, told The Associated Press on Wednesday that mother and daughter initially passed through security at Wichita’s airport without incident. But then the child ran to briefly hug Croft, who was awaiting a pat-down after tripping the alarm.That’s when TSA agents insisted the child undergo a physical pat-down. According to Brademeyer, a TSO “began yelling” at Izzy and ordered her to wait for a pat-down. She was prevented from approaching her mother, and told to “come to them, alone, and spread her arms and legs.” Frightened, Izzy screamed “I don’t want to” and bolted. She was returned to the security area, but not before a TSO threatened to shut down the airport and cancel all flights if Izzy was not restrained.[...] While the pat-down was being administered, Izzy, who “did not want to stand still and let strangers touch her,” was ordered by a TSO to stop crying.Isabella had just learned about “stranger danger” at school, her grandmother said, adding that the girl was afraid and unsure about what was going on. “She started to cry, saying ‘No I don’t want to,’ and when we tried talking to her she ran,” Croft said. “They yelled, ‘We are going to shut down the airport if you don’t grab her.’” But she said the family’s main concern was the lack of understanding from TSA agents that they were dealing with a 4-year-old child, not a terror suspect.

REALLY???? SHE DOES LOOK SOOOOO DANGEROUS!!

Six-year-old girl Salecia Johnson landed herself in the slammer recently after throwing a temper tantrum. Georgia police arrived at Creekside Elementary School where the kindergartener was accused of tearing items off the walls, throwing furniture and knocking down a bookshelf that “injured” the principal. When officials attempted to calm her, she “resisted,” so cops handcuffed and hauled her little booty downtown. (The police chief told the WMAZ local news that anyone transported to the station must be placed in cuffs while riding inside a cop car.) Salecia, pictured above, was charged with damage to property and simple assault and was suspended for the remainder of the school year.
School officials called the cops before contacting Salecia Johnson’s parents, so the child ended up in a holding cell for over an hour before her family even knew about it. Considering most kindergartners are just learning to read (and thus cannot possibly process law jargon that even I have difficulty with), I am super curious if the arresting officers used a SpongeBob Squarepants puppet to read and explain Miranda rights to her? In any case, when the girl’s family made it down to the police station to retrieve their little one, they claimed that Salecia was alone in a holding cell complaining about the tightness of her handcuffs. She has reportedly been so traumatized by the experience that she has nightmares in the middle of the night about the ordeal.

ALABAMA GETS IT RIGHT

Alabama – A Prattville man was given a three-day jail sentence for contempt of court after his wardrobe didn’t pass judicial muster. LaMarcus D. Ramsey, 20, was in Autauga County Circuit Court to enter a plea on a charge of receiving stolen property. Circuit Judge John Bush took exception to the fact that Ramsey’s blue jeans were sagging too low. The three-day stint will be served in the Autauga Metro jail. “You are in contempt of court because you showed your butt in court,” a visibly irate Bush told Ramsey.

PISSING ON DAVY CROCKETT

 San Antonio, Texas – Alamo Rangers arrested Daniel Athens after they spotting him ducking under a fence and then relieving himself on the walls of the Shrine of Texas Liberty. The District Attorney could decide to charge Athens with the felony of damaging a public monument. That is a state jail felony which carries a prison term of up to two years. The Alamo Curator and a preservationist will try to determine how serious the damage from the acids in the urine was to the wall of the Alamo, and to decide how best to remove the visible stain. The Alamo is one of the most instantly recognizable buildings in the world.

NOISY NEIGHBORS

Athens, Georgia – Officers cited a man for violating the county’s daytime noise violation after people complained he was cursing and barking like a dog in his yard. The ordinance forbids noise in residential areas that can be heard more than 300 feet away, and the officer noted in the report he marked a distance of 320 feet from the spot where he heard the man, police said.

YOU DESERVE A BREAK TODAY, AT MCDONALDS.......

 Simpsonville, South Carolina – A teenage McDonald’s employee from South Carolina was charged after allegedly spitting phlegm into a mother and daughter’s cups of sweet tea. Authorities said the two women ordered the drinks from the McDonald’s and returned them when they found they were not sweetened. After finding the drinks were still not correct when they got them back, the pair took them home to add their own sweetener — only to find phlegm floating in each of their drinks. Greenville County deputies charged 19-year-old Marvin Washington Jr. with unlawful and malicious tampering with food.
