Police: 'Chunky' escorts rip off intoxicated men
Mountlake Terrace police are on the lookout for a trio of escorts who are alleged to have stolen about $440 from four customers who had invited them over for a weekend party. The cops have their work cut out for them since they're relying on four victims who were "incredibly" intoxicated and provided only the barest of descriptions.
The suspects were all described as being about 5-feet-8, white and "chunky," in their late 20s, possibly from Tacoma.
While trying to describe the suspects to police, the men decided to rate the women on a scale of 1 to 10. Three said the women all rated a "2." But the man described by police as the most intoxicated disagreed and claimed they rated a "4."

Man who listed 'robbery' as occupation sentenced
The Associated Press
RAPID CITY, S.D. - A 60-year-old Rapid City man has been sentenced to four years in prison for robbing a bank in the city. Police said Lonnie Pannell walked into the downtown Dakotah Bank on Feb. 5 without a weapon and demanded money. He got away with about $2,800.
Pannell was arrested less than 24 hours later when his car ran out of gas near Chadron, Neb. Court documents said that when Pannell was booked into jail, he named "robbery" as his occupation.
Pannell, who also goes by the last name King, pleaded guilty in July.

Newville man was driving on I-81 with pants down, police sayBy CHRIS A. COUROGEN, The Patriot-NewsJanuary 22, 2010, 3:01PM
When state police questioned David F. Line about a report from a truck driver who allegedly saw Line driving on Interstate 81 in Silver Spring Township, Cumberland County, with his pants around his ankles and without both hands on the steering wheel, Line had an explanation.
According to court documents, Line, 49, of Doubling Gap Road in Newville, told police he had been eating a cream-filled doughnut and some of the filling had fallen on his pants. He pulled them down so he could clean himself, Line said, according to court documents. The truck driver saw his private parts because he was wearing loose-fitting underwear, Line said, according to court documents.
Nonetheless, state police charged Line with open lewdness and disorderly conduct. Line will receive a summons to appear in court to answer those charges. No hearing date has been set.

Authorities believe Wash. man electrocuted by urinating on downed power line after car crash
By Associated Press
3:53 p.m. EST, March 1, 2010
MONTESANO, Wash. (AP) — Authorities believe a Washington man was killed by accidentally urinating on a downed power line after a car crash.
Grays Harbor County sheriff's Deputy Dave Pimentel (PIM'-en-tel) said Monday 50-year-old Roy Messenger was not seriously hurt after he collided with a power pole Friday and called a relative to pull his car from a ditch.
However, family members found Messenger electrocuted when they arrived.
Pimentel says Messenger apparently urinated into a roadside ditch but didn't see the live wire. The urine stream likely served as a conductor, allowing the electricity to reach his body.
Pimentel says there will be an autopsy but burn marks indicated the way the electricity traveled through Messenger's body.

Brisk start to ticket sales for Jones concert
Featured Business » By Mark Anderson, Editor Kiowa County Signal Posted Apr 01, 2010 @ 02:57 PMGreensburg, KS —
Tickets to the May 1 George Jones concert went on sale this morning at local outlets Mackie Shae Boutique, BTI (Greensburg, Pratt, Bucklin) and Boot Hill Casino. Promoter Landon Laughban told The Signal he'd sold more than 100 tickets between 7:30 a.m. and noon Thursday over the phone.
"My phone started ringing this morning at 7:30 and it's been ringing off the hook since," promoter Landon Laughban told the Signal shortly after noon Thursday, five hours after advance ticket sales for the May 1 George Jones concert got underway.
"It's gotten off to an even better start than I expected," Laughban continued. "None of the tickets I've sold yet (over the phone) have even been from Greensburg folks. They've been orders from people in Hays, Garden City, Liberal, Wichita and Kansas City." Laughban, in fact, said a Jones fan from Florida called him shortly after news of the concert went up on Jones' website last month to ask inform him she would fly in to Wichita to attend the event set for four weeks from Saturday.
The concert will be held on the grassy fields of Greensburg’s Municipal Airport on the east edge of town just three days short of the May 4, 2007 tornado that leveled the county seat of formerly 1,400 people. Proceeds of the concert will go to aid the rebuilding of the historic Twilight Theatre, which will serve as a cinema and live performance theatre/auditorium for the new school set to open its doors next August. The theatre is currently at least $1.5 million short of the funds needed for completion.
Gates to the event will open at 5 p.m. on May 1 with three bands—Mike Benish, Retroactive and Jason Savory—set to precede Jones’ scheduled 9 p.m. appearance on stage. Jones is slated for a 75 to 90 minute performance. While Laughban is hesitant to predict how many he expects to show up for the event, he did acknowledge first day sales is a typically good indicator of an event’s popularity. The airport site is expected to handle a maximum of 5,000 fans.
Those unable to pick up tickets at any of the five outlets—Mackie Shae Boutique in Greensburg, Boot Hill Casino in Dodge, BTI in Greensburg, Bucklin and Pratt—can order tickets in advance over the phone at 580 273 8044.

BUT, googling this found a number similar stories across the country, including multiple stories about dogs eating babies' genitalia!!!
