Brought to you by the Addiction Hope and Helpline! 1-800-438-0380With the heat wave we've been having, some people have been having a little fun finding ways to deal with it. For one man in Newport News, Virginia, it was baking cookies in his car. Joseph B. B. Quinn's post has gone viral after posting photos on Facebook showing a baking sheet and a dozen chocolate chip cookies on his dashboard. Quinn, who recently moved from Connecticut, said it was around 92 or 93 degrees outside, but got up to 105 degrees in his car. After leaving the cookies in his car for two hours, Quinn had a dozen baked chocolate chip cookies ready to eat. I baked cookies in my car today. Yes, they’re tasty. Yes, my car smells like fresh cookies. Yes, it’s very nice,” he posted. The post has been shared a little more than 54,000 times so far.

A man and woman were taken into custody in Lamar Township, Pennsylvania while allegedly being under the influence of suspected bath salts. State Police say 30-year-old Jesse Shields and 22-year-old Katherine McCloskey had a bad trip just after midnight. The two reportedly thought the fireflies in the sky were green lasers coming from aliens or people who were after them. Shields fired a handgun in the air to scare the lasers (fireflies) away. He then ran to a nearby home. Officials say Shields asked the homeowner to call police because something was after them. Shields and McCloskey then went to the neighboring house asking the same favor and the homeowner retrieved Shields' gun while calling the police. Troopers say Shields was also asking if he could shower inside the home to get the “goo” off of him that was burning his skin. The two are facing burglary and drug charges. Shields' bail was set at $250,000 and McCloskey's was set at $15,000. (https://goo.gl/jrf8mM)

Prosecutors say a Colorado man has been sentenced to five years in prison for growing thousands of marijuana plants on an island in the Colorado River. U.S. Attorney Bob Troyer’s office says 33-year-old Santos Ramirez-Carrillo pleaded guilty to conspiracy to manufacture and possess with intent to distribute fifty or more marijuana plants. According to court records, Ramirez-Carrillo and another man began living and working on the island near De Beque in May 2017 and worked with other people to grow marijuana in the area, including on federally owned land. Authorities searched the island in September and arrested Ramirez-Carrillo and the other man at a campsite.
