• WEIRD NEWS: Butt-Dial Self Arrest

  Of all the phone numbers to butt-dial, a Walmart employee dialed one that led to her arrest.

  Police in Wisconsin received a 911 call and hangup from a cellphone located inside a Walmart store around 2 a.m. They responded and figured out that the call came from an employee's phone. The woman explained to officers that the phone was in her pocket and she must have somehow accidentally called the emergency number. It was an honest mistake, but officers weren't quite done with her.

  A quick check of the 27-year-old woman's ID discovered that there was an active warrant out for her arrest. Officers handcuffed her and brought her down to the station, where she was released on bail. It's unclear what charges she's facing. (WITI-TV)

• WEIRD NEWS: Map Leads Couple to Splitsville

  A man in Peru using Google Maps to plan a route for an upcoming drive was shocked when he zoomed in to Street View and saw his wife sitting on a bench with another man's head in her lap.

  The husband was mapping streets in the capital city of Lima when he recognized his wife. The photo was captured by Google's camera car five years ago. The scorned husband confronted his wife with the photo and, according to reports, divorced her. (Daily Mirror)

• WEIRD NEWS: Smell in the Cell

  The poop really hit the fan after an inmate at a Florida women's prison tried to hit the gal in the cell next door with a pile of poop.

  Debra Thomas, who was serving a sentence for robbery, got a little too cheeky with the other prisoner and started a verbal argument -- which she opted to end by tossing a turd and a urine chaser in the woman's direction.

  According to a corrections department report, the 50-year-old "became irrational" and refused to discuss the incident with guards. She may have added several years to her sentence if the assault charge sticks. (TC Palm)

• WEIRD NEWS: Keyboard Kreep!

  A California woman will have to call the Geek Squad to clean up after a member of the Freak Squad -- who stole her panties and left a nasty surprise when pleasuring himself while using her laptop.

  Jonathan Jose Ruiz was arrested last week after cops found his DNA at the scene of a dormitory break-in where the victim reported that her underwear was missing -- but an unexpected bit of grossness was left at her desk. The 19-year-old creep reportedly broke into the dorm through a window and rifled through dresser drawers before settling in to browse X-rated websites.

  Ruiz clearly worked up an appetite during his binge, since he also polished off a bag of cookies and a carton of milk from the dorm kitchen. (New York Post)

• WEIRD NEWS: Turtle Recall

  For a brief moment this week, you could have gone to a Burger King in Richmond, Virginia and purchased a Whopper, fries and a baby turtle.

  Richmond Animal Care and Control officers seized 50 baby turtles from someone who was selling them illegally in the Burger King parking lot. The department says, "Just when we think we’ve seen it all, we seize 50 turtles from being sold in a Burger King parking lot. Needless to say we are now in the possession of 50 cute little baby red-eared slider turtles."

  The tiny turtles will now be put up for free adoption. Adopters just have to sign a waiver agreeing not to release them into the wild. The seller will also likely face charges. (WTVR-TV)

• WEIRD NEWS: Ballsy Move

  A truck driver in Seattle has some set of balls -- or at least he had a set of balls.

  The driver neglected to lock the rear hatch of his truck, and as he drove up a steep hill, he spilled his load of two-pound metal balls, which all went rolling down the hill. The speeding metal grinding balls, about 22,000 of them, crashed into cars and damaged at least four of them. There were no reports of injuries. 

  The driver, who was cited for failing to secure his load, told police he took a wrong turn that led him up the steep hill. (KOMO-TV)
