Police
have identified the woman who was caught on video crashing her car in
a high-speed chase and attempting to carjack someone — all with a
baby in tow. Caitlyn Rodriguez has been locked up on child
endangerment, possession of a controlled substance, and evading
arrest charges since her arrest in San Antonio. A Texas Department of
Public Safety helicopter caught the 29-year-old zooming 100 mph down
Route 90 — with the kid strapped in the back seat of her Mercedes
SUV — after cops tried to pull her over on outstanding warrants.
She crashed into the back of a pickup truck, jumped out and retrieved
the baby, car seat and all, before fleeing on foot. With the car seat
on her arm, Rodriguez dashed across several lanes of the busy highway
and hopped into a Nissan that she tried carjacking. Cops were able to
thwart her escape by blocking the SUV and yanking her out of the
vehicle. The baby, who was not injured, was taken by Child Protective
Services. (https://goo.gl/jvT8dV)

The Grandiloquent Word of the Day
LINK TO TODAY'S WORD - Grandiloquent Words
Vellichor (VEL-ih-kore)
Noun:
-The wistfulness of a second-hand bookshop.
A wonderful neologism from John Koenig’s “The Dictionary of Obscure Sorrows” in which it is described thus: “the strange wistfulness of used bookstores, which are somehow infused with the passage of time”.
Used in a sentence:
“Quaint used bookstores, tucked away in old buildings, elicit an awareness of the arcane and arouse a most intoxicating sense of vellichor.”

WEIRD NEWS:
An
Ohio supermarket worker could face criminal charges after her
employer told cops that she consumed more than $9,000 worth of deli
meat during the past five years she has worked for the business.
According to the Tuscarawas County Sheriff’s Office, a loss
prevention manager for the Giant Eagle chain reported Friday that the
36-year-old suspect had been helping herself to slices of ham and
salami from the deli counter at the store in Bolivar. The Giant Eagle
representative told cops that a tipster had reported that the
employee ate three to five slices of deli meat daily (and had been
doing so since she began working at the supermarket). The worker
allegedly “has been consuming product from the deli in Giant Eagle
over the past 5 years.” The sheriff's report does not indicate how
Giant Eagle calculated that the worker had stolen $9200 worth of ham
and salami. When questioned Friday, the employee, Catherine Brenick,
reportedly confessed to the deli meat pilferage, “but did not wish
to give a statement.” (https://goo.gl/wXUDYN)
MOMENT OF DUH:
You
know a neighbors’ spat is no longer neighborly when chainsaws get
involved. That’s what happened in Pasco County, Florida when two
men got into a dispute over the shrubs between their houses last
week. It ended with one of them needing surgery to repair severed
tendons in his hand. The man with the chainsaw was 70-year-old
Gregory Landaker of Land O’ Lakes, who was cutting shrubs on the
property line he shares with Jeffrey Zlocki. When Zlocki noticed what
was going on, he went out and hugged “his bushes.” That
apparently didn’t deter Landaker, who continued sawing away. The
chainsaw struck Zlocki in his left hand, and he was taken to Tampa
General Hospital. Zlocki told deputies that Landaker did not intend
to cut him. But WFLA reported video showed it was a “clear and
deliberate act” and Landaker shoved Zlocki in the back. Deputies
arrested Landaker and charged him with aggravated battery with a
deadly weapon and simple battery. (https://goo.gl/kEAX41)
