A Jackson County, Michigan Department of Transportation truck was heavily damaged a week ago when a naked woman broke into a Napoleon Township lot, stole the truck, and hit a deer with it, police said. Officers received the strange call about the crash near a home at around 1:00 a.m., Wednesday, May 20th. They arrived to find a heavily damaged JCDOT pickup, a dead deer and a woman wearing only an orange safety vest and hat she had retrieved from the truck. The 31-year-old woman told officers she was with someone earlier that night who had kicked her out of a vehicle and left her on the side of the road. It’s unclear how or why the woman was naked, but Napoleon Township Police Chief Duaine Pittman believes drugs and suspected prostitution were involved. The woman was taken to Henry Ford Allegiance Health to be checked out for injuries and to undergo mental evaluation. A report of the incident has been submitted to the Jackson County Prosecutor’s Office for review and charges related to the vehicle theft. (https://bit.ly/3cgZgj7)

A woman in England whose sister wants to name her newborn after one of her favorite foods has been slammed by parents online who say the baby will be “bullied.” The woman explained that her sister, who is in her third trimester, is “ready to pop any day now,” and has finally revealed her choice of baby name after keeping it a secret the entire pregnancy. She said that when her sister first shared the name with her, she assumed she was joking, but as the mum-to-be went on to talk about a possible nickname for the baby she found out she wasn't. The aunt-to-be said: "The name is Portabella. Like the mushroom. And yes, she did give me permission to share it here.” “At first, I thought she was joking, but then she started saying how we could just call the kid Bella for short. There's obviously nothing wrong with Bella, but I think naming your kid after a mushroom is weird.” (https://bit.ly/37cfTeR)
MOMENT OF DUH: Brought to you by InsuranceChicken.com

Police reported that a Connecticut woman allegedly spit in the face of a fellow shopper when the victim violated a supermarket’s social distancing guidelines by going the wrong direction in a one-way aisle. According to cops, Martine Shanchuk, a 40-year-old Sandy Hook resident, confronted the male victim inside a Big Y market on May 18th. As part of the store’s Coronavirus safety measures, one-way aisles have been established to allow patrons to more easily maintain a six-foot distance from other individuals. Upon spotting the man going the wrong direction in an aisle, Shanchuk told police she “felt it was necessary to tell him to turn around and enforce Big Y’s aisle rules herself,” according to an arrest summary. During the argument, she allegedly spit in the male customer’s face. She was arrested for breach of peace and is due in court in July. (https://bit.ly/2TSNfKA)
