The D.A. Of The Day - Monday, April 25th

  


Half Baked:


Half Bearded mugshot  

A Florida man was arrested last week for possessing marijuana with the intent to sell, and judging by his epic mugshot, he's not going to be able to deny the charge.

58-year-old Kevin Gibson was collared just a day before 4-20, which he was probably really looking forward to. His arrest is hardly newsworthy, but his mugshot is one of the greatest ever. Gibson is sporting the seldom seen half-beard, indicating that he was likely high when he last shaved.
Wasp Killer Nearly Burns Down The House:



Never bring a blowtorch to a wasp fight.

A New Zealand man tried to get rid of a wasp nest from his home by using a blowtorch instead of his brain.

The nest inside a wall of his house, so he cut a hole in the wall and tried to use a torch to smoke the little stingers out. Unfortunately, he set fire to the wall and would have lost his house if firefighters hadn't responded in time. They doused the blaze and told the man to leave the wasp killing to the professionals.

Uranium is MY-ranium

Prolonged exposure to uranium can cause cancer.

An elderly woman in Washington state called the fire department on Thursday to ask if they would come over and remove some uranium she had laying around.

The woman was cleaning out her late husband's belongings when she came upon a piece of the radioactive element, which she believes had been in the house for 35 years. Her husband worked as a miner in Idaho and likely found the uranium and brought it home.

Over the phone, the fire marshal told the woman it was hazardous and that she should evacuate. She left to go quilting and left the uranium on her front porch in a peanut butter jar.

Hazmat crews closed down two blocks around her house as they worked to safely remove the material. A fire department spokesperson said, "She must have thought 'today's the day I'm going to figure out how to get rid of this stuff and now I'm going to go quilt.' That was the thought process."

A High STEAKS Chase:




Texas cops are getting ready to grill a guy who stole an armload of steaks from a Walmart -- and then led them on a 100-mile-per-hour chase, tossing the cow chunks at patrol cars the whole time.

The cattle-part rustler, whose name was not released, sped along for a long while, crossing two county lines while driving erratically and bouncing his beefy bounty off the hood and windshield of the deputies in pursuit. The chase went on for well over an hour, and only ended when the suspect realized he was about to "meat" his match via spike strips designed to disable his vehicle.

East Mountain police Sgt. Marc Nichols said, "It appeared that there [was] steaks and meats of some sort flying out the windows, and one of them bounced off my patrol car. That's not something you think of people stealing, especially running from the police in the process. Today was a new one."

Workers get bonus in Meth:



Workers at an auto body shop in Minnesota did such a good job that their boss decided to give them all bonuses -- in the form of methamphetamine.

Police say that workers at Clear Choice Auto Body Repair in Mankato were called in to a meeting and told they were all getting bonuses. They were then handed one-half-gram baggies of meth instead of cash. Police executed a search warrant of the shop and found used syringes and other drug paraphernalia. The shop's owner, Jesse Michael Seifert, and his girlfriend, Nancy Jean Loehlein, have been arrested and an investigation is still ongoing.
