If your throat is getting scratchy, you might be better off reaching for a Hersey bar over cough syrup. At least that’s what one leading expert (University of Hull) is advising — as he says that chocolate is better for a cough and respiratory problems than standard medicine.

A Pennsylvania man allegedly left two pounds of marijuana in the back seat of an Uber — and was arrested after he tried to get the ganja back from undercover state troopers. When 21-year-old Malik Mollett hailed an Uber near Pittsburgh in late December, he left behind his bag containing the weed. Mollet had contacted Uber, which reached out to the driver about the missing bag. The unidentified driver called police earlier this month after finding the load of marijuana sealed in plastic inside the bag. A trooper with the Pennsylvania State Police then posed as the Uber driver on Jan. 9th and called Mollett to set up a meeting to return the bag to him. The trooper texted Mollett a photo of the bag and Mollet confirmed it was his. The two made arrangements to meet up at a McDonald’s. When Mollett arrived at the McDonald’s, the undercover trooper went inside and gave him the carrier. Then another trooper entered the fast-food joint and quickly arrested Mollet.

WEIRD NEWS: Brought to you by WeirdGiftOfTheDay.com
Police say a burglar is in custody after a wild crime spree in Hoboken last Wednesday that had a number of twists and turns along the way. It all started when authorities say the man, wearing a construction jacket, broke into a pizzeria through the roof. He tried to break an ATM to steal cash but was unsuccessful, then went into the back and took two dozen bottles of Snapple. The suspect tried using a fire extinguisher to break out through the front door, only to find the roll-down gate closed, so he was trapped. He climbed back up, crawled through a common attic, and dropped into the nail salon next door, then proceeded to steal some money from the salon. Upon realizing he was trapped in that location, he climbed back up into the crawl space and went into the liquor store next to the nail salon. After stealing liquor from the store, he broke a 6-foot hole and went into a dollar store, where he was unable to escape. In the end, police say he drank the liquor and fell asleep on a shelf. The dollar store proprietor found him at about 10:00 a.m. and called police.(https://7ny.tv/2DmxEeg)

MOMENT OF DUH: Brought to you by FunkyMonkeyShirts.com

Apparently, it’s not just in Hollywood that people return to the scene of the crime. Largo, Florida police say they arrested a man who tried, unsuccessfully, to rob two banks before returning to the first one. Police said in a Facebook post Ronald Massey tried to enter the Bank of America on Wednesday morning, but found the bank wasn’t open yet. Massey wore a mask while trying to open the bank’s door around 8:20 a.m., but then rode away on his bicycle when he could not get inside. Employees of the bank called police to report the incident. About 40 minutes later and roughly a quarter-mile south of the Bank of America, police got another reporter of an attempted robbery. Massey went to the BB&T bank where he tried to get money using a knife, but safety glass at the bank forced him to leave empty handed. Tellers behind the safety glass left the area to call police. That’s when Massey went back to the Bank of America. There, he was met by a Largo police officer, who was taking a report, and was arrested.
