SCOOP OF THE DAY:
A
stockpile of weapons, including loaded handguns and a semi-automatic
rifle, was found in the back of a truck after Florida police found
the driver passed out behind the wheel.
32-year-old David
Goldammer was arrested after officers found him unconscious in his
pickup with the engine running and parked in front of an alley in
Miami Beach around 1:00 a.m. ET on Thursday. Police said they could
smell alcohol coming from the car and Goldammer almost fell when they
told him to get out of the vehicle. Two open beer bottles were found
in the truck, as well as two loaded handguns. He also had a gun in
the waistband of his pants. Officers ordered Goldammer to perform a
field sobriety test, but he refused and was taken into custody. A
search of his vehicle turned up two more loaded handguns, a
semi-automatic rifle, a pocketknife with a swastika on it, a
bullet-resistant vest and a large amount of ammunition. Police have
not said why Goldammer, from South Dakota, had the stockpile in his
car or what he was doing in the area. Goldammer was charged with DUI,
openly carrying a weapon and carrying a concealed firearm.

WEIRD NEWS:Brought to you by FreshPatch.com (use promo code RADIO to save 10%)
Bay
Area Rapid Transit, known as “BART,” has heard its fair share of
stories of unusual moments on its trains, but one woman's Tweet
Monday prompted BART to respond, “We've never seen anything like
this before.” The woman Tweeted video to BART which showed a man
holding a chainsaw, before opening another box that contained a
second chainsaw. She Tweeted, “I had to film it just in case sh*t
got sick! He kept calling himself the Texas chainsaws massacre - then
he said he was the BART massacre.” BART reported police had
received multiple calls about the incident and officers positioned
themselves to board the train at Lake Merritt, when the man got off
the train. The man, identified as 47-year-old Patrick Bingman of San
Francisco, was taken into custody for having several outstanding
arrest warrants and for making threats. He was booked into Alameda
County Jail.

MOMENT OF DUH:
A
South Carolina chef who exposed his genitalia and buttocks at an
event showcasing women-owned businesses says he’ll seek counseling.
Mike Ray tells The Post & Courier he’s “always been the life
of the party,” but says he realized pulling his pants down “didn’t
go over so well.” Around forty people had gathered Friday at Ray’s
One Broad for the reception featuring designers and high-end artisan
goods dealers. Event organizers say Ray put himself between a camera
and three women before dropping his pants to his ankles. Ray says
he’s apologized to the people involved, but organizer Erin Reitz
says he just called her husband. Ray announced Monday he’s giving
up day-to-day duties at One Broad and Normandy Farm Bakery.
Charleston police are investigating.(https://goo.gl/XFG6JK)
