The
manager of a Minnesota movie theater sold cocaine hidden in a bag of
popcorn to a police informant. 39-year-old Jamie Lynn Hiniker was
named in a criminal complaint charging her with narcotics sales.
Hiniker is the general manager of the four-screen Spotlight Theatres
in Mankato. If convicted of the felony drug count, Hiniker faces a
maximum 20-year prison term and a fine of up to $250,000. Hiniker was
a target of a Minnesota River Valley Drug Task Force probe. An
investigator reported that he knew “through previous
investigations” that Hiniker worked at a movie theater and “the
sale of cocaine typically took place behind the theater in an alley
or at the theater in a popcorn container with popcorn.” In a phone
call with Hiniker, a confidential informant last year arranged for
the purchase of $100 worth of cocaine. After conducting the buy at
the theater--which is in the Mankato Place mall--the informant told
cops that they “entered the mall and Hiniker put the cocaine in a
popcorn bag. Popcorn was then placed in the bag.” The informant
turned the popcorn bag over to police, who say that the cocaine
Hiniker sold on July 21st weighed .406 grams. (https://bit.ly/2R5AUUT)

If you’re planning on grilling out this summer, here’s a tip from Men’s Health: don’t use a water bottle to squirt out flare-ups. Their sources say it can create burn-causing steam, and even worse it can damage the finish on the grill. Men’s Health says to avoid flare-ups all together, trim the fat from the meat and cook with the lid on the grill.
A tiger was recently spotted on the loose in a Houston neighborhood — with one man pointing what appears to be a gun at the wild animal. Luckily, in the video footage the tiger seems totally harmless. The big cat with a collar was roaming around the residential area at about 8:00 p.m. when the unidentified, apparently armed man yells at another man to take the tiger inside. But I’m happy to report that nobody was injured. (https://bit.ly/2QZj9a5)
As COVID-19 ravages India, some have taken to rubbing cow feces and urine on their bodies as a way to fight the virus. Doctors are warning against the practice, saying there’s no proof it boosts immunity or helps treat COVID. “There are also health risks involved in smearing or consuming these products — other diseases can spread from the animals to humans,” Dr. J.A. Jayalal, national president of the Indian Medical Association. In Hinduism, the cow is a scared symbol of life and earth. Some residents of Gujarat in the western part of the country have been visiting cow shelters to rub the excrement on their bodies, then hug or honor the cows while the mixture dries. When it does, it’s washed off with milk or buttermilk. (https://bit.ly/3uDZRFr)

You
have a nail in your body. Or, at least, the components of one. Iron
is an important nutrient that the human body needs. It helps your red
blood cells carry oxygen, which is necessary for producing energy
throughout the body. That's why an iron deficiency can present itself
with feelings of exhaustion. Amazingly, a healthy adult has about
three grams of iron, enough that, if it were pulled out and melted
down, it could form a nail up to three inches long.

Mexican
authorities discovered a 650-foot tunnel built by Joaquin “El

The
most shocking Mother’s Day gift this year was the handiwork of a
Wisconsin man. During a disturbance on Sunday afternoon, a
43-year-old woman was tased in the neck by her son, who was upset
“because he could not find his phone.” Investigators say that
22-year-old Andrew Peterson tased his mother in the victim’s home
in Lone Rock, a village about 45 miles west of Madison. After the
tasing, Peterson left the residence with his 20-year-old girlfriend
and the couple’s young child. Police subsequently located Peterson,
who reportedly “admitted to using an electronic weapon...on his
mother on Mother’s Day.” Peterson’s girlfriend, Colleen Parker,
was also arrested for allegedly punching Peterson’s mother in the
face during a confrontation Thursday. Peterson and Parker had been
living in the victim’s home for the past several months. They were
booked yesterday into the Richland County jail. Parker was charged
with battery and disorderly conduct. Peterson was charged with
battery, disorderly conduct, possession of an electronic weapon, and
bail jumping in connection with a separate domestic battery case
pending in Iowa County.(https://bit.ly/3uDSOwG)

A
school bus driver has been arrested for allegedly having a loaded gun
on the bus. Norfolk Police said students at King Philip Regional
Middle School found the gun on a seat in the back of the bus
Thursday, but none of them touched it. The driver, 65-year-old David
Tripp, works for Holmes Bus Company which is hired by the school
district. A parent called police Thursday night to report students
found the gun on the bus after school. Tripp allegedly told police
kids found a pellet gun on his bus and then he tossed it in the
woods. Investigators wasted time there before finding the real gun at
Tripp’s home. “I’ve known the individual for a long time. He’s
a long time Norfolk resident and I’m upset with him that he would
do this to the residents in the town of Norfolk,” said Police Chief
Charles Stone. After an investigation, officers determined the gun
fell out of Tripp’s pocket while he was cleaning up the bus after
dropping off Norfolk elementary school students. No elementary school
students came in contact or saw the gun. Tripp has a License to Carry
a Firearm, but it will be suspended. Police will also seize any and
all firearms in his possession. Tripp faces several charges including
reckless endangerment of a child. (https://cbsloc.al/2QWb7ib)
