WITH A LITTLE HELP FROM OUR FRIENDS!
Police in Oakland, California spent two hours attempting to subdue
a gunman who had barricaded himself inside his home. After firing

beside them, shouting out to give himself up.

WHAT WAS PLAN B???
An Illinois man, pretending to have a gun, kidnapped a motorist
and forced him to drive to two different automated teller machines.
The kidnapper then proceeded to withdraw money from his own bank
account.

SOME DAYS, IT JUST DOESN'T PAY!
Fire investigators on Maui have determined the cause of a blaze
that destroyed a $127,000 home last month - a short in the homeowner's
newlyinstalled fire prevention alarm system. "This is even
worse than last year," said the distraught homeowner, "when
someone broke in and stole my new security system..."
----------------------------------------------
THE GETAWAY!
A man walked into a Topeka, Kansas Kwik Shop and asked for all the
money in the cash drawer. Apparently, the take was too small so
he tied up the store clerk and worked the counter himself for three
hours until police showed upand grabbed him.
----------------------------------------------
DO-IT-YOURSELF BRAIN SURGERY??
In Ohio, an unidentified man in his late 20s walked into a police
station with a 9-inch wire protruding from his forehead and calmly
asked officers to give him an X-ray to help him find his brain,
which he claimed had beenstolen. Police were shocked to learn that
the man had drilled a 6-inch deep hole in his skull with a Black
& Decker power drill and had stuck the wire in to try and find
the missing brain.
----------------------------------------------
DID I SAY THAT???
Police in Los Angeles had good luck with a robbery suspect who just
couldn't control himself during a lineup. When detectives asked
each man in the lineup to repeat the words, "Give me all your
money or I'll shoot", the man shouted, "That's not what
I said!"
----------------------------------------------
OUCH, THAT SMARTS!!
A bank robber in Virginia Beach got a nasty surprise when a dye
pack designed to mark stolen money exploded in his Fruit-of-the-Looms.
The robber apparently stuffed the loot down the front of his pants
as he was running out the door. "He was seen hopping and jumping
around with an explosion taking place inside his pants," said
police spokesman Mike Carey. Police have the man's charred trousers
in custody
----------------------------------------------
ARE WE COMMUNICATING??
A man spoke frantically into the phone, "My wife is pregnant
and her contractions are only two minutes apart!" "Is
this her first child?"the doctor asked. "No, you idiot!"
the man shouted, "this is her husband!"

his hand in his pocket
