Breaking news! Hold the front page ...
Last week my friend Jane got up to go to the toilet at 3.50am. Returning to bed she notices car headlights shining through her front door. There has been a spate of car break-ins in the area, so she peeks around the curtains to see what's going on. Sure enough there's a guy out there with a head torch on. She quickly calls 111 and tells them what's happening. "We'll send the dog squad. Stay inside and don't turn the lights on," say the police. Literally three minutes later she hears the roar of the police car down her street, then silence. Her phone rings "Hi Jane, it's Constable So-and-so here. Good news. We have apprehended the offender." "Oh that's great," says Jane somewhat relieved. "Yes," says the constable. "It was the NZ Herald delivery guy. You'll be pleased to know that the dogs didn't bite him."
Pash, cash & dash on camera
The Tap Inn bar in Billings, Montana released surveillance video of an armed robbery. It also showed two customers at the bar, lost in their make-out session during the entire crime, seemingly oblivious to danger. The robbers, perhaps impressed by the couple's passion, ignored them - even while emptying the cash register just a few feet away. (Source: Weird Universe)
