BIG SCREEN-LITTLE SCREEN:In Des Moines, Iowa, a volunteer firefighter has resigned after being accused of driving a fire engine drunk. Police say Jeffery Feaster was charged with operating while under the influence on June 6th. Officers say he was responding to a 9-1-1 call when police on the scene said he smelled like alcohol and was slurring his speech. Feaster's blood alcohol content was twice the legal limit. There are no rules preventing firefighters from drinking before the start of their shift. The Iowa Firefighter's Association says both volunteer and paid firefighters are encouraged to not respond to a call if they are impaired or feel they won't be able to perform their duties.

If
you think having a fence around your pool or an un-climbable ladder
next to it will keep your toddler from getting to the water, think
again. A Massachusetts family shared video of their toddler climbing
what is supposed to be a gate to stop children from getting into a
pool. Keith Wyman says his family was in their back yard (in
Attleboro) when his 2-year-old son, Cody, began to climb the gate
blocking the ladder to their above-ground pool. The Wymans grabbed
Cody before he got into the pool, but not before capturing it on
camera to show other parents how easily kids could climb
over.

Officials with Canada’s Jasper National Park are reminding people to never jump on the back of a black bear. A guy did just that in an attempt to rescue his dog, which had spontaneously jumped from an open car window and barked at the bear, which then attacked it. The dog didn’t make it. The man managed to emerge unharmed.

A
Wisconsin man caused a scene at a movie theater after his wife
allegedly put salt on their popcorn without his permission and
angrily declared their marriage to be over. Police arrived at the
theater in Brookfield, a town twelve miles west of Milwaukee, after
reports of a domestic situation stemming from a snack purchase gone
awry. According to a police report, the wife purchased the popcorn
herself and was instructed by her husband not to salt it. Having paid
for it, she decided to do it anyway. The husband, salty in more ways
than one, accused his wife of being “unfaithful” and doing
“things” behind his back. Police said the wife never felt
threatened at any point, and only called the cops for assistance on
how to handle the unpleasant situation. It is unclear whether divorce
proceedings have begun. https://goo.gl/y4ykuL

A
woman in Canada reportedly called police Monday night after her pizza
was taking too long to prepare. Ontario Provincial Police were called
to a restaurant in Elgin around 10:00 p.m. by a 32-year-old “hangry”
woman who complained, along with her 10-year-old son, that their
pizza wasn't made in a timely manner. A police constable told the
news outlet that authorities warned the woman about how to properly
use the 9-1-1 system for emergencies. “It’s for emergency
situations in need of police, fire, or ambulance," Constable
Sandra Barr said. “It’s not for pizza calls.” Police said there
was no evidence to suggest that she consumed alcohol prior to dialing
9-1-1. https://goo.gl/GVEZ85
