An argument “over a Kelly Clarkson TV show” turned violent Monday afternoon when a Florida Couple allegedly exchanged punches, according to police who busted the duo for domestic battery. According to arrest affidavits, 61-year-old Linda Donahower and 55-year-old Ronald Meyer were in their Clearwater residence late Monday afternoon when they “engaged in a verbal argument” about the Clarkson show. Clarkson, who won the first season of “American Idol” in 2002, hosts “The Kelly Clarkson Show,” a weekday talk show on NBC. The 37-year-old singer’s hour-long program debuted in September. Investigators charge that the quarrel between Donahower and Meyer turned physical when an annoyed Donahower punched Meyer “in the shoulder to get him to be quiet.” Meyer allegedly responded by jumping on Donahower and striking her in the face. Cops report that the couple have been in a “romantic relationship for approximately 14 years,” and that they were both “intoxicated causing inconsistencies in their statements.” Donahower and Meyer were both “taken into custody for a mutual battery.” (https://bit.ly/2QGQ9Q7)

A carjacking suspect is in jail after he allegedly drove a stolen truck, its owner and a goat more than 130 miles from Missouri to Oklahoma. State troopers say 40-year-old Brandon Kirby was arrested Wednesday in Sand Springs, Oklahoma, after a slow car chase in a stolen truck. He is charged with kidnapping and being a felony in possession of a firearm, according to the Creek County Sheriff’s Office. The truck’s owner says he was asleep when Kirby allegedly took the vehicle at an adult video store in Carthage, Missouri. There was also a goat in the truck at the time. Police say the carjacker drove all the way to Tulsa, Oklahoma, more than 130 miles away, before kicking the victim and goat out of the truck. The truck owner called 911 then OnStar to report the vehicle stolen. The security company was able to remotely slow down the truck to 15 miles per hour. Officers pursed the truck at low speeds and used stop sticks to end the chase. Kirby was then taken into custody. https://www.wvlt.tv/content/news/Sleeping-man-goat-carjacked-driven-130-miles-before-suspect-arrested-566645061.html
