A
man in Georgia wearing no clothes recently broke into a liquor store
and stole a can of soda. Police said 61-year-old Charles Wyatt used a
hammer to break the glass of Beverage World in Forsyth County early
in the morning. Surveillance video shows the man entering the store
completely naked except for his shoes. He then steals a Coke and
wanders around drinking it before lying down for a little while.
Wyatt was arrested around 4:00 a.m. after exiting the store and
charged with burglary, theft by taking, and possession of tools for
the commission of a crime. The owner of the store, Jamie Kurisko,
told WSB-TV he was “relieved” because he figured Wyatt wasn’t
really trying to rob him. (https://goo.gl/qNkwfv)

Police
say a Connecticut man charged with throwing a brick through the
window of a police car, narrowly missing an officer's head, said he
did it because he “hates cops.” Devon Adams-Almstad was charged
with first-degree criminal mischief, assault on police, hate crime,
and other offenses for allegedly throwing the brick at the Hartford
police cruiser just after 9:00 p.m. Monday. The unnamed officer was
cut with flying glass, but declined medical attention. Assistant
Chief Rafael Medina says Adams-Almstad, who is white, said he “hates
cops and was targeting a white cop due to recent events in the news.”
The 20-year-old Hartford man was held on $100,000 bail. The case was
not yet listed in online court records and it could not immediately
be determined if he has a lawyer. (https://goo.gl/fev2aY)

A
former Yankee prospect — who gave up life on the streets to sign
with the Bronx Bombers in 2010 — was busted at JFK airport for
making terroristic threats against cops. Leonel Vinas, who once
signed a minor league contract with the Yanks, made an Instagram post
about shooting cops on Monday before attempting to board a flight to
the Dominican Republic. “HERE’S A MESSAGE,” Vinas wrote. “I
AM GOING TO THE DOMINICAN REPUBLIC. THE FIRST COP THAT STOPS ME, IS
EITHER GETTING SHOT OR GETTING HI-JACK.” Vinas was arraigned on
Tuesday and was being held in lieu of $10,000 bail.
