When
Louisiana cops yesterday found a “clear crystal-like substance”
inside a plastic Walmart bag in his pocket, John Combs did not, like
some suspects, claim it was a laxative or sugar and corn starch to
use in baking a cake. No, the 47-year-old Combs explained to police
that the substance was “salt which he had to treat an in-grown
toenail.” Turns out it was methamphetamine. After spotting
Combs--who was carrying a large wooden stick--walking in the middle
of a West Monroe roadway around 4:25 a.m., a cop asked Combs to put
down the stick and then “patted him down for any more possible
weapons.” During the frisk, Combs reportedly sought to keep the
patrolman from searching a pants pocket. While home remedies for an
ingrown toenail can include soaking the foot in a warm Epsom salt
bath, the cop who examined Combs’s purported salt “identified the
substance as methamphetamine.” Combs was arrested for possession of
a controlled dangerous substance. He was booked into the Ouachita
Parish jail on the felony charge. (https://bit.ly/3wiesrx)

Bees
sometimes sting other bees. Bees are notorious for their stings, but
humans aren't the only ones who experience this pain in the neck (or
the arm, or the leg…). In protecting their hives from outsiders,
some "guard bees" will stay by the entrance and sniff the
bees that come in, says Marianne Peso from the biology department of
Macquarie University. If there's a rogue bee from another hive trying
to steal some nectar, the guard bee will bite and even sting the
intruder.

A
man who was performing Botox treatments has been arrested and charged
with practicing or attempting to practice medicine without a medical
license. Director Mike Bruno, with the Sheriff’s Office, called it
“one of the most bizarre cases” he’s come across in his career
during a news conference. Bruno said the Sheriff’s Office received
a tip from another law enforcement agency that Nelson Turin was
performing Botox treatments without a medical license and without the
appropriate state certifications. According to Bruno, a detective who
was posing as a client during a on March 12th visit went into the spa
on San Jose Boulevard to talk about a Botox treatment. During a
consultation with the detective, Bruno said, Turin was seen consuming
alcoholic beverages. Bruno said Turin set up an injection kit, used a
marker to identify different areas for an injection and prepared to
perform a treatment. “That’s when our other detectives came in
and stopped him where he was and he was arrested prior to doing any
of the services on our undercover officer,” Bruno said.

A
Brevard County man riding his motorcycle at more than 100-mph while
weaving in and out of traffic told deputies his need for speed was
okay because “he was trained to drive like that.” Brevard County
deputies said they spotted 65-year-old Charles Thomas of Malabar, on
his motorcycle around 10:00 a.m. traveling at speeds over 100-mph on
