Stupid Human-Conn. cops: Man went naked to dental appointment


STRATFORD, Conn. – Police say a Connecticut man has been arrested because he showed up at a dental office naked.

Police say 41-year-old Christopher Hoff, of Stratford, also was five days late for his appointment.

Authorities say Hoff entered Optimus Dental's office Monday with nothing on. A startled female receptionist screamed, and he ran away.

Officers went to his home, and Hoff told them he had been sleeping all day. Police took Hoff to the dental office, where the receptionist identified him.

Hoff was charged with disorderly conduct, public indecency and failure to comply with fingerprinting.

He did not immediately return a telephone message left Wednesday at his home. It's unclear if he has an attorney.

Stupid News-Cops to try smoking ban for interrogations


TOKYO (Reuters) – Offering suspects a cigarette during police questioning may become a thing of the past if a Tokyo police experiment with a ban on smoking in interrogation rooms works out.

The Tokyo Metropolitan Police will implement the ban on a trial basis from mid-February due to health concerns about second-hand smoke as well as worries that offering cigarettes from a police officer's own pack may be seen as doing the suspect a favor, Kyodo news agency reported Monday.

Police are expected to formalize the ban after a three-month trial period, although some officials have expressed concern that requests by suspects to take a smoking break may decrease the level of "tension" during an interrogation, Kyodo added.

A Tokyo Metropolitan Police Agency spokeswoman said she was unable to confirm the report as no announcement had been made.

Japan last year tightened rules for police interrogations, barring officers from touching suspects or grilling them for long hours, following several cases in which the accused were later found to be innocent after having been forced into making confessions.Get Sirius----Comedy---2009 Dodge Ram----Advertise Here and 24 Other Sites!

Bizarre News|School bus liquor-store run gets cops' attention


BILLINGS, Mont. – A school bus driver made an unscheduled stop at a liquor store, then allegedly asked a student to help hide her purchases when police stopped her, the district superintendent said. It does not appear the driver had been drinking, Billings Public Schools Superintendent Jack Copps said. No charges had been filed but the driver quit her job this week.

Copps said someone spotted the bus at the liquor store on Dec. 12 and called authorities. No students were on the bus at the time, he said.

By the time officers caught up with the bus, the driver had picked up some middle school students and allegedly asked one student to hide a paper bag with bottles of alcohol near the back of the bus, Copps said.

Copps said the school immediately notified its bus contractor, First Student, that the woman was not to transport any of the district's students.

School district policy prohibits alcohol on school property or in vehicles transporting students. Copps described the incident as "embarrassing."

Stupid News-Cops bust nine students accused in milk vomiting



TEMPE, Ariz. (AP) - Police at Arizona State University say they've arrested nine fraternity members suspected of vomiting milk from a footbridge onto cars on the street below. The vomiting incident caused a crash that injured two people.

Associated Press

Assistant Police Chief Jay Spradling says police are fairly certain the Sept. 22 incident was hazing. He says 8 of the Delta Sigma Phi fraternity members arrested this week on suspicion of disorderly conduct were pledges, while one was the pledge master.

ASU has a strict policy against hazing, as does the national fraternity organization.

Tempe police Sgt. Steve Carbajal said the vomit caused one car's driver to stop, and another car smashed into it from behind. A woman and her 6-year-old daughter suffered minor injuries.

Stupid News:Cops nab motorist who owes $1.9M in traffic fines



SAO PAULO, Brazil - Brazilian police reportedly have caught up with a motorist who owes the equivalent of nearly $2 million in unpaid traffic fines. Folha OnLine said police stopped a 36-year-old man on Wednesday night and discovered he has been ticketed nearly 1,000 times since 2001, the year he bought his current car.

Folha OnLine said the accumulated fines for speeding and running red lights total 3.4 million reals ($1.9 million).

The man said he never received the tickets because he was always too busy to register the car in his name.

Folha OnLine said the car is worth about $6,600 and was impounded. It will be auctioned unless the man comes up with the money he owes.

Stupid News:Stuck 'agent' tells cops of secret bomb mission


Stupid News:Stuck 'agent' tells cops of secret bomb mission

KNOXVILLE, Tenn. - It wasn't the preferred way to enter the Knoxville Museum of Art, but Richard Anthony Smith told police he was on a mission. The 25-year-old Knoxville man called 911 from his cell phone before dawn Wednesday saying he was trapped in an air conditioning duct leading from the museum roof, Knoxville police spokesman Darrell DeBusk said.

Police and firefighters reached the roof, found a rope and cable and followed them to a vent shaft. Peering inside, they spotted Smith about 45 feet down.

"Mission failed," he told them.

Hoisted up and read his rights, Smith told police he was a "special agent from the United States Illuminati, badge number 0931" and had rappelled onto the museum from a helicopter, a police report said.

He said he was following orders to "defuse and confiscate" a Soviet-made nuclear warhead, specifically a "MERV6SS-22AN" warhead, according to the report. The bomb supposedly was hidden in a blue, plastic cow sculpture in the museum basement, he said.

However, Smith told officers his "agency" called while he was in air-vent limbo to say it made a mistake and the bomb might be in a Memphis museum instead.

Police charged Smith with aggravated robbery. He was being held on $2,000 bond at the Knox County Jail. Authorities said he did not have a lawyer.

Stupid News:Police: Man blames bad driving on spilled beer


Stupid News:Police: Man blames bad driving on spilled beer

ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. - A man with four previous drunken driving convictions who was stopped for weaving in and out of traffic on Interstate 40 was ready with an excuse for his poor driving: his passenger spilled his beer.

Not surprisingly, the man was arrested just before midnight Saturday, said state police officer Kurtis Ward, who said he initially thought the driver was joking.

"He was so matter of fact about it, like it wasn't a big deal," Ward said.

The 31-year-old man was allegedly too drunk to perform field sobriety tests and was arrested on aggravated drunken driving charges, court records said.

Ward found four opened bottles of beer in the car, court records showed.

It was the man's sixth DWI arrest. He had been found guilty of four of five previous drunken driving charges and has paid $1,750 in fines, the DWI Resource Center said.

Stupid News- G. Bush charged with shooting traffic light near UCLA; cops find 10K rounds in van, locker


Stupid News- G. Bush charged with shooting traffic light near UCLA; cops find 10K rounds in van, locker

UCLA police charged a man with shooting at a traffic light Friday in Westwood, Calif.

The Los Angeles Times says Gene Bush was carrying five handguns with laser sights and 400 rounds of ammunition when officers took him into custody near UCLA Medical Center.

Investigators say they later found 10,000 rounds of ammunition in his van and storage locker.

It all started with a 911 call just before midnight.

"Witnesses indicated that the suspect fired three shots at the traffic light at the intersection," the department says in a statement. "An area check located bullet strikes in the traffic light and one in a nearby building. The suspect made anti-government statements and told officers we must look in his nearby suitcase for 'the secret.' A quick view into open pouches of the suitcase showed timers, cans of paint thinner, and other suspicious items"

They called in the bomb squad.

Bush, who has no known ties to the school, is being held at the county jail, according to the Daily Bruin, a student newspaper.

Stupid News-Boars help German cops capture auto theft suspect


Stupid News-Boars help German cops capture auto theft suspect
BERLIN - A herd of wild boars has thwarted a suspected car thief's getaway in northern Germany.

Police in Schwerin say the 18-year-old abandoned a stolen SUV he was driving Thursday after failing to shake off a chasing patrol car by driving into a field.

Police nabbed his passenger immediately. But they say the driver initially got away by running into nearby woods.

Officers then heard the fugitive shouting for help — he had run into a herd of angry wild boars that were keen to protect their young.

Police freed the man from the boars and took him into custody.

Wild boars are a common sight in forested areas of northern Germany. They often make themselves at home in residential neighborhoods, too, uprooting gardens and annoying homeowners.
