A
California man climbed into a large fan at a vineyard — and
remained stuck for two days until authorities found him there with a
bunch of meth. The 38-year-old was discovered Tuesday by a deputy
responding to a call about a suspicious vehicle parked near the Santa
Rosa winery. After spotting a hat on a piece of farming equipment,
the deputy looked inside and found the man wedged inside. Asked why
he’d decided to go into the shaft of a vineyard fan, the man
“indicated he liked to take pictures of the engines of old farm
equipment,” the statement said. But authorities noted that the farm
equipment wasn’t antique — and that the man “had far more
methamphetamine than camera equipment.” “The motivation to climb
into the fan shaft remains a total mystery,” the sheriff’s office
said. The man required medical treatment but is expected to recover.
He will be charged with trespassing and drug possession, as well as
violations of a probation case. “Lucky for this guy the citizen
called in to report his vehicle, otherwise this story ends with a far
more tragic outcome,” the statement
said.(https://bit.ly/3g9WRMo)

In Hungary an 18-year-old man was in court to be sentenced after being found guilty of robbery. When he heard the judge say he’d be locked up for 30 years, he went nuts and attacked the judge. When police finally pulled him off, his attorney explained that the sentence was for 3 years, not 30. The defendant apologized, explaining that he had a hearing problem.

A
tick bite can make you allergic to red meat. Plenty of people have
food allergies, but few are the result of an insect bite. In a
strange and growing trend, some people who get bitten by the Lone
Star tick can develop a sudden allergy to red meat. Beef, lamb, and
pork (which are technically classified as red meat) can make people
with this allergy experience headaches, sneezing, a runny nose, and
nausea. In severe cases, it can cause the person to be unable to
breathe. For some sufferers, the allergy fades over time, but for
others, it's permanent.

An
airline crew called on passengers on a cross-country flight to help
stop a fight that broke out in the cabin, forcing the Delta Air Lines
jet to divert its route Friday. Flight attendants on Flight 1730 from
Los Angeles to Atlanta called on able-bodied men to help subdue an
“unruly” passenger who started a fight, according to a report and
video of the incident, which was posted on social media Friday.
Despite social media posts suggesting that the passenger may have
tried to breach the cockpit, a spokesperson for Delta denied that was
the case, although the flight was eventually diverted to Oklahoma
City. The airline later identified the unhinged traveler as an
off-duty flight attendant — and said the person had tried to take
control of the plane’s PA system before others on board intervened.
The disruptive passenger’s name wasn’t released. The FBI took the
person into custody. “Thanks to the crew and passengers of Delta
Flight 1730 (LAX to ATL) who assisted in detaining an unruly
passenger as the flight diverted to Oklahoma City (OKC),” the
spokesperson said in a statement. “The aircraft landed without
incident and the passenger was removed by law enforcement. We
apologize to our customers for the delay and any additional
inconvenience this caused.” (https://bit.ly/3izX9Ol)

No
one was injured after a blind man got behind the wheel of a truck,
and crashed into the front of a grocery store Tuesday morning. KPD
says 62-year-old Christian Searcy crashed a truck into the front cart
stall at the Safeway in Kennewick just before 8:00 a.m. Authorities
say Searcy had been in the parking lot overnight but are unsure why
he then got behind the wheel. It's also unclear exactly what he was
doing in the parking lot overnight. There's minor damage to a pillar
at the front of the store, and to the front of the truck. Police also
say Searcy had a knife, but put it away when officers asked him to do
so. Searcy is facing a possible charge of suspicion of driving with a
suspended license. This is an ongoing investigation.
