A Texas wedding photographer has been arrested after she allegedly had sex with a guest at the ceremony and then urinated on a tree near the reception. 26-year-old Katherine Leigh Mehta has been charged with public intoxication and obstruction/retaliation. Wedding guests allegedly found Mehta, who moonlights as a bikini model, having sex with a guest in a room at the Springs Event Venue in Weatherford on Saturday. The wedding party informed an off-duty sheriff's deputy, who was working security for the ceremony, and Mehta was told her behavior was inappropriate. Mehta then allegedly went to a water fountain and began yelling at guests. When officers told her to leave the venue, she allegedly began urinating on a nearby tree. Authorities arrived at the scene around 8:00 pm and put Mehta in a patrol car, where they said she began to threaten the officers inside. After they arrived at Parker County Jail, officers found a prescription bottle of Alprazolam - sold under the trade name Xanax - in Mehta's jacket pocket. Investigators said they believe Mehta mixed the Xanax with alcohol. (https://dailym.ai/2BDr2au)

WEIRD NEWS:Brought to you by The Weird Gift of the Day
No one was around to save Clark Griswold as he dangled from a roof while hanging up Christmas lights in “National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation,” but a dummy representing the fictional character wouldn't have faced the same fate. A family in Austin, Texas, based their Christmas lights display off the iconic movie scene for a neighborhood decorating contest, but the display may have been a little too realistic. The family combed through consignment shops in the area to find the perfect outfit for the dummy, who they nicknamed "Clark Griswold Jr." -- a flannel button-up, down vest, baseball cap, jeans and “dad” sneakers. A concerned good Samaritan saw the dummy dangling from the roof and thought it was an actual person. He attempted to help and when the dummy didn’t respond he called 9-1-1. (https://abcn.ws/2DTMA4l)

MOMENT OF DUH: Brought to you by FunkyMonkeyShirts.com 
A Tennessee man faces up to three years in prison for urinating on a Kellogg’s cereal conveyor belt at a Memphis facility. News outlets report 49-year-old Gregory Stanton pleaded guilty last month to tampering with consumer products. He was indicted by a grand jury in September. Stanton worked for the plant in 2014 and posted a video online in 2016 of him urinating on the conveyor belt. The video led the company to alert law enforcement and launched an investigation that involved the Food & Drug Administration. It’s unclear what prompted Stanton to urinate on the line or to film and share the act. WREG-TV reports the company and workers union were involved in a labor dispute at the time. Stanton is set to be sentenced in February.
