All right, which one of you folks was this?

Responding to an indecent exposure complaint, police found Anthony Smith, 32, walking around a Florida park Thursday afternoon wearing:

• Women’s lingerie, the bottoms of which “were of the thong variety” and left Smith’s genitals “fully exposed”
• Fake breasts
• “A wig of long black hair”
• A “black mask around his face”
• A penis ring that is “used for arousal purposes as well as to maintain erections”
• A black fox tail “protruding from his posterior.” Upon further examination, the bushy tail turned out to be attached to “a rectal plug that was inserted in his anus”

Man claims someone keeps stealing his plane and taking it for joyrides, even repairing it

Hong soon learned that an unidentified man had stolen the plane on at least two occasions and flew it over Southern California. Neither Hong or authorities could determine who stole the plane, but two days after the aircraft was reported missing it was found at an airport some 25 miles away from its initial location. When Hong retrieved the plane, he was surprised to find it without a scratch and with no signs it had been stolen besides some cigarette butts in the cabin. He decided to remove the plane's battery so that it could not be stolen again. Furthermore, he planned on returning the next weekend to ensure no further damage had been done to the plane. When the next weekend rolled around, Hong arrived at the airport to find that, once again, the plane was missing. This time it was found around 18 miles away from the first airport the thief landed at. Even stranger, someone had replaced the aircraft's battery.

Man arrested after driving child-size pink Barbie Jeep through Prince George, B.C.

Photos captured by several witnesses show Kasper Lincoln wearing aviator sunglasses and cruising down 15th Avenue near Nicholson Street — one of the main thoroughfares. Speaking to CBC News, Lincoln said he was getting ready to go get a slurpee with a friend but "got lazy" and decided to borrow his roommate's child's tiny car to get around, as his friend walked along beside him.

In the images, Lincoln is seen driving near the side of a road that's been closed for construction before turning onto an open side road. Then, an unmarked police cruiser pulls him over and he's arrested. Some onlookers were in disbelief. "You're really arresting him for driving a kid's Jeep?" asked Summer Caron, one of the people to film the man being put in handcuffs. She told CBC News that Lincoln had been driving close to the curb and going "maybe three miles per hour."

With many awesome pictures, like this one: https://i.cbc.ca/1.7627495.1757286748!/fileImage/httpImage/image.jpg_gen/derivatives/original_1180/pink-jeep-pull-over.jpg?im=Resize%3D1180

And in today's episode of How Stupid Can The Government Be?

Animal shelter workers hospitalised after FBI uses furnace to burn seized meth

Fourteen staff members at a US animal shelter were hospitalised on Wednesday after the FBI used an incinerator at the facility to burn two pounds of seized methamphetamine. Staff and some 75 cats and dogs were evacuated from the Yellowstone Valley Animal Shelter in Billings, Montana, when the building filled with smoke. The incinerator is usually used by animal control officers to dispose of euthanised animals, but local authorities said it can also be used by law enforcement to burn seized narcotics.
The cats and dogs have been relocated, and the animals which experienced the most smoke exposure are now under supervision.

Before evacuating themselves, many employees put on masks and helped get the animals out. Some staff were exposed to the smoke for more than an hour, and several began to feel sick. All 14 went to the emergency room, where they spent about three hours in a hyperbaric oxygen chamber to combat the effects of smoke inhalation.

Just heard all the details of the Mark Sanchez stabbing. The wind sprints are probably the oddest part.

It's no wonder charges were upgraded, once pictures of the victim came out.

Wikipedia Volunteers Avert Tragedy by Taking Down Gunman at Conference​

Wikipedia Volunteers Avert Tragedy by Taking Down Gunman at Conference

After the man walked onto the stage at the “Wiki World’s Fair” event and threatened to kill himself, witnesses said, two members of the audience jumped in to stop him.

www.nytimes.com

A man in an orange sweatshirt rushed the stage. He was not in law enforcement, but a Wikipedia contributor on the conference’s “trust and safety team”: Richard Knipel, the City University of New York’s “Wikimedian-in-residence.” He grabbed the gunman from behind. Another Wikipedian on the trust and safety team, Andrew Lih, had been standing watch in the aisle and charged forward, too. “I saw the gun he’s holding go from pointing up at the ceiling to sweeping down toward the room, and as it swept across me I said ‘Oh, my god,’ and I ducked down, but I still kept moving” said Mr. Lih, a digital strategist who works with museums and libraries.“I grabbed his arm,” he continued. “He was still clutching his gun pretty hard. I pried his fingers away from it, removed it from his hands and put it down.”The gun was loaded, according to a senior law enforcement official who spoke on the condition of anonymity to discuss a pending investigation.
