San Leandro police arrested a man during a traffic stop after they found an “It” clown mask, marijuana, and a gun in the car. Police said they made the stop around 12:05 p.m. on Sunday in San Leandro. While searching the vehicle, an officer found a fully loaded AR-15 hidden in a bag in the backseat. The AR-15 had a 50 round drum magazine with one bullet in the chamber. The suspect was arrested and booked on multiple drug and weapon violations. “This was a great traffic stop that took an illegal and dangerous weapon off the street,” San Leandro police wrote on Twitter. “This is another positive outcome in keeping the citizens of San Leandro safe.” (https://abc7ne.ws/3sHfdIT)

Failing to make your bed in the morning may actually help keep you healthy, scientists believe. Research suggests that while an unmade bed may look scruffy it is also unappealing to house dust mites thought to cause asthma and other allergies. A (Kingston University) study discovered the bugs cannot survive in the warm, dry conditions found in an unmade bed. The average bed could be home to up to 1.5 million house dust mites. The bugs, which are less than a millimeter long, feed on scales of human skin and produce allergens which are easily inhaled during sleep. The warm, damp conditions created in an occupied bed are ideal for the creatures, but they are less likely to thrive when moisture is in shorter supply.

A New Mexico man is facing federal charges for holding up a mail carrier at gunpoint. According to court documents, the carrier was delivering mail late last month when an armed man came up and forced him to hand over the keys to the mail truck. He made off with mail and packages. The carrier says he could see what looked like more mail already in the man’s car. Postal Investigators have identified that man as 20-year-old Cisco Casaus-Alires. He is facing federal charges of assault on a mail carrier and mail theft. It comes on the heels of a number of local mail carrier robberies in recent months including one just a few days earlier. It’s not clear whether any of the robberies are related.(https://bit.ly/2NpSoJD)

An angry McDonald’s customer called the police after missing out on breakfast when she got stuck in a line at the drive-thru. The woman was left fuming when she arrived at the window minutes after the 11:00 a.m. cut-off, to find out breakfast was no longer being served at the branch in East Grinstead, West Sussex. She called the police around 11.30 to complain how it was “unfair” that staff had refused to serve her a McMuffin meal. But unimpressed officers weren’t having any of it, and warned her it was “not a police matter.” Mid Sussex Neighborhood Policing Inspector, Darren Taylor, revealed the incident on Twitter. He said: “A call @11.30 this morning from an angry lady who stated due to the queue at the McDonald’s drive-thru in EG, by the time she got to the window the breakfast service had stopped and she couldn’t order a breakfast. The lady was given words of advice about ringing the police.” (https://bit.ly/2MeGCkF)

According to the Jackson County Sheriff’s Office, after falling asleep at the wheel with a beer can in her hand, a Greenwood woman almost rolled her truck into a ditch. 35-year-old Erica Nicole Cobb was later charged with a DUI. Early Sunday morning, officers were dispatched to a suspicious vehicle parked in the middle of Highway 71. Upon arrival, deputies found a Dodge pickup truck roadway with the engine running. “Deputies attempted to make contact with the single occupant, who was seated behind the wheel, passed out and holding a beer can,” a Jackson County Sheriff’s Office release stated. “After being awoken by the deputies, the driver removed her foot from the brake pedal and the truck began rolling at a slow pace down the roadway.” One of the deputies continued to run alongside the truck beating on the window and giving commands for the driver to put the vehicle in park. The truck continued to travel toward a ditch before the driver corrected the course of direction and traveled alongside the roadway narrowly missing several mail boxes and a pole. Deputies had Cobb perform field sobriety exercises and she was arrested for driving under the influence based of deputies’ evaluations. https://bit.ly/2LPNHIz

THIS WEEK'S DEAR JOHN LETTER!

Dear John,

My fiancé is upset with me, but it's not my fault. We've been dating for two years, he asked me to marry him at Christmas time. I'm excited to get married, but now there's a problem. One of my ex-boyfriends recently moved to the town we live in and he works for the same company I work for. My fiancé thinks there's something between us, but there's not. We are not in the same department we never see each other at work. I didn't even know he worked there until my fiancé told me. He thinks I'm keeping something from him. I have nothing to hide, but now this jealousy has me concerned. We didn't talk for a few days. The last few times we did talk he was pretty cold towards me. What can I do to prove to him that there is nothing going on? Should I be concerned about the way he's acting over this non-issue? Please help!

Florida Police Officers surrounded Jackson Memorial Hospital on Friday afternoon after an inmate who was thought to be wearing a hospital gown attempted to escape. The inmate, identified as 39-year-old Jermaine Henderson, was supposed to be taking a shower before scheduled surgery when he escaped through the ceiling of the bathroom. Police said he made it to the 10th floor and stole a janitorial uniform. He was walking barefoot when he walked out of the building. Officers quickly put the hospital on lockdown and set up a perimeter. Henderson was running and jumping through people’s backyards, so the residents called 9-1-1. He hid under a truck, but officers eventually caught him. Records show Henderson has a history of criminal cases that goes back to 2002 in Miami-Dade County. The charges include cocaine possession, robbery, grand theft, burglary and battery. Henderson’s latest case was May 22, 2011 when he was arrested for burglary, resisting arrest, and battery on a law enforcement officer. (https://bit.ly/2XROifq)

It’s a great party trick and useful for circus performers but scientists say that learning to juggle can cause changes in areas of the adult brain. Mastering the skill increases the amount of grey matter in areas of the brain that process and store visual information, proving what was not thought possible — that new stimuli can alter the brain’s structure. A comparison of brain-imaging scans of non-jugglers and other volunteers before they learned to juggle and three months later, revealed an increase in grey matter in certain areas of the newly trained jugglers’ brains.

You lose up to 30 percent of your taste buds during flight. This might explain why airplane food gets such a bad reputation. The elevation in an airplane can have a detrimental effect on our ability to taste things. According to a 2010 study conducted by Germany's Fraunhofer Institute for Building Physics, the dryness experienced at a high elevation as well as low pressure reduces the sensitivity of a person's taste buds to sweet and salty foods by about 30 percent. Add that dry cabin air affects our ability to smell, and our ability to taste is reduced further.

Safari Pets in Cabot called police reporting a ball python was stolen from its enclosure. “We don’t hear stories like this,” said Sergeant Chris Reilly of the Cabot Police Department. “The manager stated they just received a shipment of reptiles in. As the employee was putting the reptiles into the enclosure they were called to another task and at that point a male subject took the reptile from the enclosure.” Sergeant Reilly said Safari Pet’s surveillance video caught the whole thing. So, the store posted still shots of the video to social media, hoping someone would recognize the man and woman. According to the police report, the man from the pictures called the pet store and asked why the store was plastering his face all over the internet. Employees told the man, “you know why” and told him there was surveillance video of the snake being stolen. “Social media plays a big part now in criminal investigations because it’s an easier way for us to get the word out,” said Sgt. Reilly. Safari Pets says the snake was returned to the store. The owner of Safari Pets said he is not pressing charges but he hopes this teaches the shoplifter a less and he’ll turn his life around.

According to the Titusville Police Department, a Florida man who fled from officers said he was trying to get home to his mom and claimed he was driving too fast to pull over. Police said they saw 18-year-old Nicholas Debetes driving a red Hyundai Elantra “at an extremely high rate of speed” around 11:15 p.m. and turned on their lights in an attempt to get him to stop. Records show Debetes passed several locations where he could have stopped but instead continued to a trailer park where he parked the car. After he was placed in handcuffs, a Brevard County deputy arrived and said Debetes had an outstanding warrant, adding that she had tried to pull him over earlier that night but he sped away and she was unable to catch up. Debetes claimed he was speeding because his mother wanted him to come home for an unknown reason and he added that he was driving too fast to stop. “If I would have tried to stop quicker, I would have crashed the vehicle,” Debetes said. He was arrested on charges of aggravated fleeing and eluding, operating an unregistered vessel, and reckless driving. https://bit.ly/2XVL4aI

Cannabis activists have come up with a way to entice more people to get the coronavirus vaccine: Give them weed. The group D.C. Marijuana Justice — the architects of Initiative 71, the 2014 ballot initiative that legalized pot possession and cultivation in the District — are plotting a cannabis giveaway around vaccination sites in the city. Those sites haven't been announced yet, but the organization is readying volunteers to distribute free baggies of marijuana at multiple vaccination centers as they come online. So far, local growers have pledged three pounds of cannabis to the giveaway, and organizers hope to collect a total of five pounds by the time they begin handing it out, according to D.C. Marijuana Justice co-founder Adam Eidinger. As an added bonus, the group also plans to give away seeds for a local cannabis strain named after former D.C. Councilmember David Grosso. Some of the seeds — dubbed "Grasso’s Green" — were sourced directly from Grosso, a cannabis advocate who departed D.C. politics at the end of 2020.(https://bit.ly/3ivEH7l)

Bacteria, yeast, and mold could be growing in your machine because of irregular cleaning, and those little devils don’t discriminate — it doesn’t matter whether you have a coffee pot, a Keurig, or a fancy espresso machine. Researchers say the part of the machine that stores water is the biggest culprit of disgustingness: half of the coffee reservoirs tested contained mold and yeast. The intense heat from the machine will kill some of the bacteria, but it’s not saving you from all of it.

Investigators say a tip from a convenience store clerk about a stolen donut led them to arrest a man accused of impersonating a police officer. The tip came from a 7-Eleven in Lehi on Sunday. According to an arrest report, police were told that a man wearing a “sheriff’s deputy” jacket had stolen a donut earlier in the day and left in a white Ford truck. Lehi police looked at the surveillance video of the truck and then tracked it down to a nearby motel parking lot. Officers were told it belonged to 47-year-old Daniel Mark Wright, who was staying in a room at the motel. “Officers knocked on the door and made contact with Wright as he opened the door and was asked to step outside. A female was also inside of the bedroom and was identified. While the door was open, I observed the green Salt Lake County Sheriff’s jacket hanging in the entry-way closet,” a Lehi Police officer wrote in the arrest report. Wright admitted he was at the 7-Eleven, but refused to answer any questions about the truck, which officers determined was stolen. Police arrested Wright for impersonation of an officer, receiving or transfer of a stolen vehicle, and theft. https://bit.ly/3qBaWov

A naked Florida man stole a marked police vehicle and crashed it in a wooded area. 22-year-old Joshua Shenker was arrested after Thursday’s crash on charges including theft of a motor vehicle, aggravated battery on a law enforcement officer, depriving an officer of means of communication or protection, and resisting an officer without violence. Officers responded to reports of a naked man running along Interstate 10 in western Jacksonville shortly before noon Thursday. Shenker was lying in the roadway when an officer stopped on the opposite side of the route. Shenker then ran across the highway lanes toward the officer. The redacted report didn’t say how Shenker stole the vehicle. Authorities confirmed only that a vehicle belonging to the City of Jacksonville was stolen. First Coast News footage of the scene showed the crashed vehicle to be a marked patrol car. According to the police report, about $10,000 worth of damage was done to the vehicle. Shenker was being held on $4,011 bail. (https://bit.ly/3cjY4PV)

Police arrested a West Monroe man on suspicion of urinating on public property and disturbing the peace after authorities received a suspicious activity complaint. According to the complainant, a group of men were outside a house on Oak Street yelling and one person urinated on the side of a house. Police made contact with the apparent driver of a vehicle, who refused to identify himself, though officers later learned his name was 20-year-old Kolbieray Garrett Hamilton. Hamilton told officers he had done nothing illegal. Officers said his breath smelled of alcohol and his speech was slurred. Hamilton also refused to remove his hands from his pocket and also refused to be handcuffed. "Without being asked, Hamilton stated he had permission to urinate on the house," stated the arrest report. He was booked at the Ouachita Correctional Center on the above charges as well as on one count of resisting an officer. (https://bit.ly/39D5sTm)

The shelf-life of a hobby is just 16 months. Researchers who polled 2,000 adults identified work commitments, busy family life and lack of motivation as the reasons we don’t stick with interests for longer. 25% of adults have quit a hobby having never used any of the items or accessories they purchased especially for it.

Japanese Investigators can finally close the book on “The God of Toilets Case.” Investigators in Chiba Prefecture had a hard case to crack. Sure, they’re trained to deal with criminals, but this time around, they weren’t up against just any common crook. After a string of serial toilet thefts took place in Funabashi City, they started dubbing the caper “The God of Toilets Case.” It all began back in October, when a construction crew part-way through building a house in Funabashi showed up to the job site to discover the toilet had disappeared since their last shift. It wasn’t long until another porcelain throne vanished from a different under-construction house, and from there the reports kept coming in, with the eventual commode count reaching eighteen pilfered poop pots. But the police finally have their god/man, having traced the thefts to 26-year-old office worker Ryusei Takada, who was arrested and taken into custody earlier this week. Takada was previously employed at a home construction company, and it’s likely that his knowledge of on-site work flow and common security measures enabled him to continue his crapper crime spree for as long as he did. https://bit.ly/38G3jHq

MOMENT OF DUH: Brought to you by TimeForRehab.com

A woman is in custody after allegedly stealing a mail truck in Brooklyn and slamming it into at least 10 parked cars. Shocking video of the car carnage shows the driver repeatedly accelerating and reversing into the vehicles around her — including a police car — as she’s surrounded by screaming NYPD officers. The postal panic began just after 6:00 p.m. on Fulton Street and Patchen Avenue in Bedford-Stuyvesant. That’s where a 21-year-old woman got behind the wheel of an unoccupied Postal Service truck and took it on a reckless joyride that lasted seven blocks, sources alleged. When the mail truck gave out at Fulton and Troop Avenue, she tried to flee on foot but was quickly taken into custody. Miraculously, no one was hurt in the suspect’s terrifying express ride, but more than 10 parked cars were damaged. Charges are pending against the young woman, and her identity has not been released. https://bit.ly/3qsAAf9
