A burglary suspect tried to go underground in his attempt to run from the law in northeast Florida. The Putnam County Sheriff's Office arrested 36-year-old Justin Buchler and another man during a burglary investigation in Melrose. A deputy and his K9 partner, while searching the property, found Buchler throwing dirt on himself, in an effort to hide by burying himself in a nest for a gopher tortoise. It's against the law in Florida to mess with the nest of a gopher tortoise, as they are a threatened species. Buchler, of Keystone Heights, faces two counts of larceny, two counts of drug possession, two counts of endangering a threatened species, possession of methamphetamine, and possession of a weapon by a convicted felon. Deputies also arrested 28-year-old Justin Harris of Melrose. He's charged with two counts of burglary, two counts of burglary with property damage, and possession of a weapon by a convicted felon.

that he had not washed for more than a year. Interestingly, when the
couple first married almost a decade earlier the husband was
obsessively clean, taking showers three times a day and washing his
hand every few minutes.

It's
been ONE WEEK.... Are you still feeling groggy after the Daylight
Saving Time switch? Scientists say you better watch out for
“microsleeps,” tiny lapses in attention that can create problems
at work and accidents on the road. The microsleeps apparently account
for extra car crashes and workplace injuries that follow our lost
hour each March.
Have you adjusted to Daylight Saving Time? Probably not, as scientists say it could take some of us up to two weeks to recover from the effects of our shifted clocks.

FUN FACT FOR YOU:Share this with your friends... they'll think you're really smart!
Tornadoes can cause "fish rain." Tornadoes can develop over water just as well as they can over land. When they do, they're called "waterspouts," and they suck up large amounts of lake or sea water—as well as whatever's swimming in that water. If the waterspout travels on to the land and the winds decrease, there's nowhere for those fish to go but down. As far as we know, there's no tornado powerful enough to pick up sharks, but a fish-nado is entirely possible.

A
Florida man prosecutors’ say was involved in a scheme to attach
“skimming” devices to pumps at gas stations across New England to
steal the debit and credit account numbers from thousands of
unsuspecting drivers has been arrested. 29-year-old Luis Angel
Naranjo Rodriguez of Hialeah, Florida was charged Monday with
possessing fifteen or more counterfeit access devices, and possession
of device-making equipment, the U.S. attorney’s office in Boston
said in a statement. Naranjo Rodriguez was arrested in Concord,
Massachusetts last November after police spotted him at a closed gas
station next to an unlocked gas pump with keys in the lock. Officers
searched Naranjo Rodriguez, a nearby vehicle, and his hotel room and
found multiple skimming devices and additional pump keys. He faces up
to twenty-five years in prison if convicted.

Angered that another man referred to him as “Drew Carey,” 34-year-old North Carolinan Brian Baer allegedly punched the victim in the face, triggering his arrest for battery during the early morning of March 8th. Police say Baer walloped Casey Simons after leaving a bar in St. Pete Beach, Florida. Baer told cops that “the victim called him Drew Carey which made him mad and he struck the victim once in the face.” The confrontation left Simons with a cut lip. Simons also suffered “scratches on his right knee from being tackled onto the ground” outside Jimmy B’s Beach Bar at The Beachcomber resort. Baer was charged with battery, a misdemeanor, and booked into the county jail. (https://bit.ly/2VY1W0H)
