DAD AND BUNNY GET INTO SCUFFLE AT MALL

 

A man who was playing the part of an Easter Bunny at a mall in Jersey City, New Jersey, got into a fight because a man’s daughter fell off a chair while sitting beside him.

The fight broke out after the 15-month-old girl fell off a chair while she was having her photo made with the Easter Bunny, 22-year-old Kassim Charles. The girl’s father, Juan Jimenez-Guerrero, 44, allegedly verbally and physically attacked Charles after she fell. The two had to be separated by mall security, and were taken to a local hospital where they were treated for minor injuries.

They have both been charged with aggravated assault and disorderly conduct. Jimenez-Guerrero has a lengthy criminal history and is wanted on a fugitive from justice warrant, the newspaper reported. Charles has two prior arrests and was wanted on a Jersey City warrant for a light rail violation.

REMEMBER, TAKE WHAT YOU BROKE IN TO GET AND LEAVE

Justin Stansfield, a British heroin addict and thief, broke into a garage to try to find something he could steal and sell in order to buy his next fix.

While in the garage looking around, he found a freezer full of cold beers and Popsicles, so Stansfield thought, why not have a few beers and some popsicles before I leave?

All that would have been great, because no one came home to catch the burglar while he was enjoying his brief break from crime. Unfortunately for him, he made one major mistake – he took out his false teeth while indulging in the food, and forgot to put them back in.

Yep, the police used the teeth to identify him. That brief spell of forgetfulness cost him sixteen months behind bars.

MAN SWALLOWS HEROIN, GETS SICK FROM CARRYING IT

A man who brought 27 bags of heroin into the country from the Dominican Republic had to go to the hospital after one of the bags broke open in his stomach. Police reported that doctors at a Salem, Massachusetts hospital removed the bags after Miguel Rodriguez became sick with symptoms of an overdose.

Bags were removed from his stomach, intestines and rectum after he checked into the hospital. Police were there to count the bags and examine their contents. Apparently Rodriguez swallowed the bags in order to be able to bring them back in to the U.S.

 Rodriguez was charged with drug trafficking and pleaded not guilty at his arraignment at the hospital on Thursday. Don’t know how that’s going to go for him as there was ample evidence to the contrary taken from his body.
