A
30-year-old unemployed man apparently decided to be an ice cream
truck driver for the night after he stole a pink and white ice cream
truck in Okaloosa, Florida early Friday morning. William Grappy, a
California man whose current address is listed in Tampa, opened the
unlocked ice cream truck shortly after midnight and found the keys
inside, according to a press release from the Okaloosa County
Sheriff’s Office. The truck owner’s girlfriend saw Grappy drive
off in the vehicle and followed him. Grappy ditched the truck and ran
away. Okaloosa County sheriff’s deputies found Grappy, who they
said apologized for “being an idiot.” Grappy was charged with
burglary, grand theft of a motor vehicle, and possession of
marijuana. (https://goo.gl/BW1bKn)

WEIRD NEWS:

Police
said a man crashed his car into a North Carolina cell phone store
after demanding that workers help fix his phone. 74-year-old Charles
Michael Hager faces six counts of assault with a deadly weapon and
one count of injury to real property. Police said Hager went to a
Verizon store in Raleigh to get help with his cell phone. But the
store had closed for the night, so he drove through the front door.
There were six employees inside and none of them were hurt.
Authorities were called to the scene at about 9:00 p.m., an hour
after closing “He said, ‘My damn phone’s not working. I need
help. Open the damn door,’” a 9-1-1 caller said. “He got in his
car and just drove right in the damn door. Now he’s pretty calm.”
Hager was jailed under a $7,500 bond and has court planned in
September. (https://goo.gl/zaVYrU)
MOMENT OF DUH:By LearnWithoutLoans.com (Find Funding For College)
Cops
said a California teen broke into a home through an open window this
week — to ask residents if he could use their Wi-Fi. Police said
the Palo Alto couple, who are in their 60s, woke up around 12:30 a.m.
to see the stranger standing in their bedroom. Instead of ransacking
the joint, the intruder, a 17-year-old boy wearing a T-shirt around
his face, asked the couple if he could hop on their Wi-Fi network.
But the homeowner bolted out of bed and pushed the wannabe
web-crawler outside. Cops quickly arrested the teen, whose name
wasn’t released because he’s a juvenile, and charged him
residential burglary, a felony, as well as prowling and providing
false information to an officer — both
misdemeanors.
