A
New Port Richey, Florida man flashed a 100-watt smile while having
his mugshot taken Friday following his fifth driving under the
influence arrest. Pasco County Sheriff's deputies arrested
56-year-old Gordon Ormond after he violated multiple traffic laws
while driving on Embassy Boulevard in Port Richey. Deputies said
Ormond ran a red light while driving at a speed of fifteen mph.
Deputies used their lights and sirens to signal Ormond to pull over,
but he continued driving erratically, striking a basketball hoop in a
driveway. Ormond then sped up to about 35 mph in an attempt to elude
deputies. Finally, deputies laid down stop sticks in the road ahead
of Ormond. Ormond stopped his car when three out of four of his tires
were deflated by the stop sticks. Ormond was charged with his twelfth
driving with a suspended license offense and his fifth felony DUI. He
was also charged with leaving the scene of an accident and fleeing to
elude. (https://bit.ly/2mmvzJe)

A Vietnamese tourist has been banned from visiting Australia for three years after she did not declare she was bringing food into the country. The unnamed 45-year-old woman arrived at the Sydney airport on Saturday with a suitcase packed with 22-pounds of food, which included items that posed a risk of introducing the African swine Flu. Nearly half of the woman’s perishable cargo reportedly consisted of cooked and uncooked pork. As of September, all 63 provinces of the Southeast Asian country were affected by an outbreak of the deadly disease. About 4.7 million pigs were killed to contain the outbreak. That number is currently above 5.4 million. The African swine flu has spread throughout the southeastern part of Africa, Europe and Asia, where 60 percent of the world’s pig population is reportedly concentrated. Australia is increasing its efforts to keep the swine flu from infiltrating the country by stepping up inspection of mailed parcels and passenger luggage – especially at international airports. According to Yahoo Finance, fragments of the fatal disease were detected in 48 percent of tested seized products in September.

MOMENT OF DUH: Brought to you by SingleStudentLoan.com
There’s
no crying in baseball and there’s definitely no fighting in the
stands while watching a playoff game. A Houston Astros fan was
arrested for allegedly slapping a New York Yankees fan as the two
watched their respective teams in the second game of the American
League Championship Series on Sunday. Police said that 73-year-old
James Dinkins was arrested on a misdemeanor assault charge after
police said he slapped the Yankees fan in the back of the head at
Minute Maid Park. The unidentified Yankees fan was just cheering for
his team at one point during the game. Harris County District
Attorney’s Office prosecutor Nathan Beedle said the allegations
against Dinkins were “troubling.” He said Houston prides itself
on “hospitality, sportsmanship, and welcoming anyone from
anywhere.” (https://fxn.ws/33EUZ5o)
