An employee at Ferry Pass Middle School in Florida was arrested on several drug charges. An arrest report said that 44-year-old Mary Katherine Sams Mundy was pulled over during a traffic stop. Deputies with the Escambia County Sheriff’s Office found numerous bags of what they believed to be narcotics on the floorboard. Court documents said the suspected narcotics tested positive for heroin, cocaine, and methamphetamine. The report added that a backpack was found carrying approximately twenty unopened syringes, along with a silver plastic bag with a small amount of marijuana. Deputies also noted that Mundy’s driver’s license had expired in July. She told deputies that she did have an up-to-date license, but it wasn’t with her at the time. According to Escambia County Deputy Superintendent Norm Ross, Mundy was placed on suspension with pay pending the sheriff's investigation. (https://bit.ly/33wWram)

It’s okay to cut loose at a wedding, but when people start losing fingers, it’s time to stop. A bride, groom, and best man were reportedly arrested after a “disturbance” at the wedding reception in Scotland that allegedly included somebody biting off a guest’s finger. So, Claire and Eamonn Goodbrand spent their wedding night in prison. The Scottish Sun reports the incident occurred at The Vu at Ballencrieff Toll in Bathgate. Eamonn’s best man, Kieran Goodbrand, was also taken into custody. Goodbrand reportedly suffered a head injury during the incident. According to the outlet, both men were seen still wearing their dress shoes under their prison uniforms Tuesday when they appeared in court, where neither man entered a plea. The trio was released on bail, under certain conditions including avoiding contact with certain family members. (https://fxn.ws/2YnVGOf)

According
to a felony battery complaint, incensed that his girlfriend “bought
the wrong food from McDonald’s,” a Florida Man struck the woman
“with sweet and sour sauce packets in the head and face area.”
Cops say that Jesus Oscar Ferrer Jr. attacked the woman--with whom he
has a child--in the couple’s room at a motel in suburban Tampa. The
victim told police that Ferrer “became angry” and began arguing
with her over the “wrong food” being purchased at McDonald’s.
During the dispute, 30-year-old Ferrer allegedly began pelting the
woman with plastic containers of McDonald’s “Sweet ‘n Sour”
dipping sauce. Ferrer fled the motel, but was subsequently arrested
and booked into the Pasco County jail on a felony battery charge.
