Zombie Arrested Twice In 3 Hours; Others Arrested En-Route To Jail

Night of the drunk-driving living dead
Police say that a women who was decked out in zombie gear was arrested on drunk driving charges twice last weekend; the second arrest came about three hours after she was released on the first.

Officers say they initially pulled the 26 year-old woman over just before 2 a.m. for driving without having headlights on.  She had just come from a "zombie prom" party, and had a few too many adult beverages while she was there.  Police officials say they arrested her, brought her to the station and released her into the custody of a …

Arrested For A Butt-Dial

Police in Roswell, New Mexico say they've arrested two burglary suspects after one of them butt-dialed police.

The inadvertent outbound call was placed just after the 37 year-old man and his 35 year-old female accomplice had burglarized an area home.  At some point, during the getaway, one of their phones dialed 9-1-1.  Not only did dispatch get an earful about the details of the crime, the things they took and their getaway, the entire call was recorded.

Police listened along for 45 minutes and not only heard them talk about how they wish they had taken more, but then bragging about …

Airman Arrested For Giving A Double ‘Wet Willie’

A reasonably intoxicated airman found himself on the wrong side of the law recently after he gave a double wet willie to an on-duty cop. For some, getting a wet-willie is an annoyance, but when damp pointer fingers assault the inside of an officer's ears, well that can be classified as a crime.

The 24 year-old was at home on leave from the air force, according to friends, and he decided to celebrate his temporary freedom with a night out on the town. At the end of the night (and after last call), Riley Swearingen did not head directly to …

Passed Out Drunk Driver Caught With Weapons, Drugs

Most criminals try to do their best to avoid the long arm of the law, but that seems not to be the case in Northern California.

A spokesperson for the San Francisco Police Department say an alleged drunk driver has been booked at the Bryant Street Jail after police responded to call about him being passed out in his car.

Officers drove out to the intersection of Fullerton and 40th Avenue and arrived just before midnight.  Witnesses said they'd seen the car swerving about neighborhood streets; they suspected whoever was driving it had a few too many to drink.

Police found the …

Mail Thief Tries To Evade Police By Feigning Sleep

A lot of times, when a criminal realizes the police are on their tail, they make a run for it.  They sprint through yards, hop fences, but they rarely (if ever) stop drop and snore.

But this week, the Santa Monica Police Department said they arrested an alleged letter-snatcher after he did just that.  Mail theft is a very big deal, they said, and a suspect can't just sleep things off and pretend like the crime didn't happen.

Officers said they were tipped off about the letter burglar earlier last month.  The caller said someone had been pilfering things from their …

Suspected Drunk Driver Hits SDPD Squad Car At Checkpoint

A San Diego resident's bad night got a heck of a lot worse last weekend after they crashed their car into a SDPD police cruiser at a Pacific Beach checkpoint.

Two other cars were also struck during the accident, according to a department spokesperson.  No one was injured, they said, although the driver was taken into custody and charged with felony drunk driving.

Although most first-time DUI arrests in San Diego require the defendant post $2,500 bail bonds in order to be released from custody that bail amount can jump to $100,000 or more if the driver was in an accident.

The …

ATM Theft Via Forklift? It Almost Happened In Florida

Earlier this year, a Pennsylvania man was arrested after he stole a bulldozer with the intention of selling it to a scrap yard.  He was arrested and eventually booked into a local jail pending bail bonds.

Florida officials, though, say they're still on the lookout for a suspect who managed to make off with a fork lift.  If anyone has any information on who this is or where sheriff's deputies can find them, they're apparently all ears.

Authorities say the 10,000 pound piece of construction machinery was not only stolen from a construction yard, the thief then drove it about a …

San Jose Police: Arrested Naked Guy Had 3 Warrants

A spokesperson for the San Jose Police Department has confirmed the naked guy they arrested last week was found to have three outstanding warrants.

It all started several days ago when officers received word that a man who wasn't wearing anything except shoes was seen wandering around downtown.  Police said they aren't sure when the guy started removing his clothes, but they did suspect he was high on some sort of drug.

The suspect was reportedly wandering from house to house and eventually sat down on someone's porch.  Residents and their children were frightened, they said, so they tried to subdue …

Car Theft Blamed On Inmate Overcrowding

In Oct. 2011, California initiated its inmate realignment program, which required that certain inmates who would have once been sentenced to serve time at state run prisons be shifted to the county jails.

Since that time, local detention centers have been dealing with growing pains and many have started to burst at the seams.   The answer to this, according to sheriff's officials, has been to let certain local low-level pre-trial offenders out on their own recognizance;  sentenced inmates are often being released early.

Uber-bad Decisions?

California State Senator Ben Hueso may be rethinking his decision to vote against ride-sharing after being arrested on a DUI just hours after voting casting a vote which is considered against the ride-share industry.

Last Thursday night, just hours after he voted in favor of adding hefty regulations to the popular taxi-alternative services, he was picked up by the California Highway Patrol after he was seen driving the wrong way down a one way street.

Hueso was booked into the Sacramento County Jail on two counts of misdemeanor DUI.  He was released the following morning after posting $1,500 bail bonds.
