Police
say that an Alabama man named Gary Bradley, who goes by “Tripp,”
took money from a church's collection plate and deposited the funds
into an account he controlled. Witnesses told police that Bradley
went before Mayfair Church of Christ and announced he had been
stealing from the offering plate. Church officials say Bradley has
helped with collection during services. He's accused of taking
thousands of dollars from the church and its members. Huntsville
police spokesman Lieutenant Michael Johnson says the bank questioned
the suspicious nature of the deposits into Bradley's account since
the checks were made out to the church. Police say Bradley has been
making deposits since last fall. Bradley was arrested and charged
with theft of property. (https://goo.gl/uYuJia)
MOMENT OF DUH:By LearnWithoutLoans.com (Find Funding For College)
A
man accused of streaking during an Ohio middle school girl’s
lacrosse game and assaulting a trainer blamed “bad mushrooms” for
his behavior while in court. Prior to running on the field,
20-year-old Melvin Williams broke into a home across the street and
damaged four paintings and antiques worth up to $27,000. He then
reportedly ran onto the lacrosse field in his boxers. Onlookers also
said that he was noticeably bloodied up. Dash cam video of Williams’
arrest showed him struggling with officers as they tried to place him
into their police car. Williams recently faced a judge on charges of
assault and induced panic. That's when his attorney blamed “bad
mushrooms” for the incident. The judge set a $50,000 bond in the
case, which was posted that afternoon. (https://goo.gl/gsEKu7)
