Authorities
in Arizona have arrested a man who police believe severed his finger
while slashing his neighbor’s car tires after an argument. Maricopa
Police Department spokesman Hal Koozer said Kevin Johnson was
arrested and identified as the owner of the finger found on his
neighbor's driveway. Francesca Wikoff told police she found the
finger on April 15th after discovering her vehicle had two slashed
tires on one side. Police said a trail of blood led to a nearby
residence. Authorities said Wikoff and her husband went to a
neighbor's home the day before. She told police a male neighbor
joined them uninvited and became drunk and aggressive. Wikoff said
the neighbor pushed and threatened her and her husband before being
asked to leave. Johnson was arrested on multiple charges, including
criminal damage, assault, threatening and intimidating, and
disorderly conduct. Online court records did not list an attorney for
Johnson, who could comment on his behalf.

Dolphins
have been trained to be used in wars. Dolphins are known widely as
adorable, intelligent animals. What is not as widely known is that
these crafty creatures were used by the U.S. and Soviet Union during
the Vietnam War and the Cold War. Both countries studied the
creatures for their sonar capabilities, but also trained them to
detect mines, bring equipment to divers, find lost equipment, and
guard submarines amongst other nifty tricks.

MOMENT OF DUH: Brought to you by RadioSavings.com
A
Maryland man was booted off a Southwest Airlines flight for not
wearing a mask while eating Twizzlers. “I, Avi Mandel, just got
kicked off a plane because I wasn’t wearing my mask in between
bites while I was eating,” the frequent flier from Baltimore County
said in a video he took on the plane. “That’s so sad. That’s so
wrong,” Mandel told the news outlet. “It was absurd. The way I
was treated was absolutely absurd. It was crazy and it wasn’t
fair.” Mandel was waiting for the plane to take off from Thurgood
Marshall Baltimore Washington International Airport for Fort
Lauderdale on Sunday when he opened a pack of his frequent snack. A
flight attendant told him he had to put his mask on “and kind of,
like, ran away,” he said. “And I’m like, ‘Oh, I guess she
didn’t know I was eating.’ Then I hear on the loudspeaker,
‘Everyone who’s eating has to wear masks in between bites,’”
Mandel continued. He said he didn’t think much of it at the time,
but the plane returned to the gate, where a security team escorted
him off. (https://bit.ly/3sZp4J8)
