According to an arrest report, after police found a scale and bags containing white and brown substances in his backpack, a Florida Man claimed that he was carrying “a bag of sugar and a bag of corn starch to bake a cake.” Investigators say that 30-year-old ex-con Jethro Geneus was a passenger in a Honda that was pulled over by Port St. Lucie cops around 3:00 a.m. on New Year’s Eve. Geneus was removed from the car after officers determined that he was the subject of an outstanding arrest warrant. A subsequent search of a backpack that was at Geneus’s feet on the front floorboard revealed “two large bags of a white and brown substance.” Geneus said that the seized substances were actually ingredients for a cake to be baked. However, a field test revealed that both substances--which weighed a combined two-thirds of a pound--contained Ecstasy. In addition to a narcotics trafficking count, he was charged with introducing contraband into a detention facility after he allegedly dropped a bag of meth while in custody at the county jail.

A British vet says throwing a stick for a pet dog is dangerous and could damage its health. The vet (Royal Veterinary College) said owners should use rubber toys or balls instead. He’s cataloged serious injuries caused by dogs being stabbed by sticks they have run to fetch for their owners.

When it comes to owning a pet, there are definite ‘yes’ animals: dogs, cats, birds, fish. There are ‘maybe’ animals: monkeys, miniature horses, pigs. Then there are the definite ‘no’ animals: scorpions, wild boars, hippos. Let’s talk about that last one for a moment. A South African man was bitten and killed by a pet hippo he called “Humphrey”. Marius Els would often ride the hippo’s back as if it was a horse. Els previously said of the hippo that the animal was “like a son to me.”

The 2020 Olympics will be held next summer in Beijing — delayed a year due to the pandemic. In my opinion, it’s not too late to get Bubble Soccer added as a spectator sport. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8ijop2gU_S4&feature=youtu.be

WEIRD NEWS: Brought to you by WeirdGiftOfTheDay.com

According to the Brevard County Sheriff’s Office, a Florida man who rode his airboat through the streets of his neighborhood on New Year’s Eve threatened to kill deputies as they were taking him into custody. Deputies said they were called to Mimosa Avenue around 11:30 p.m. Thursday and saw a man, later identified as 40-year-old Joseph Prohaska, riding an airboat on the streets before pulling it into a yard. A public information officer said Prohaska knocked over trash cans and was shooting off fireworks during the incident. As deputies were on scene, they said Prohaska turned the airboat on and started to rev the engine “to cause a disturbance and mock law enforcement.” Prohaska was then placed under arrest but began making threats when deputies also tried to take his father into custody, telling them, “I will kill you if you hurt him.” He is facing charges of disorderly conduct and making threats to a law enforcement officer.

MOMENT OF DUH: Brought to you by TimeForRehab.com

Police say that a British man tried to sneak a samosa into jail by hiding it between his buttocks. West Midlands Police said discovering the fried pastry was one of the most unusual incidents of 2020. “We’ve had a few odd incidents,” Inspector Manj Ahir told the website. “One that sticks in my mind was a man found with a samosa secreted between his buttocks during a search.” The hungry detainee apparently acted out of fear that he wouldn’t be able to get any decent food after being arrested. “He said he wanted to sneak it into the cell as a snack as he’d didn’t think the food was up to much,” Ahir said. The cop quipped: “He’d obviously not read our positive Tripadvisor reviews!” (https://bit.ly/3pPe9jV)
