Cops Fail Chasing Car Driven by Seven Year Old Boy

Don't ever think that grown up police can easily chase the car driven by a ..... wait.... by a 7 year old boy!

The incident happened in Plain City, Utah. The Weber County Sheriff's Office received a call about a child driving recklessly. They assign two deputies to chase the car. They pursued the vehicle as it drove through parking lots and stop signs. But alas! They were unsuccessful in their duty.

Now about the driver behind the steering. A boy, just 7 years old, driving for the first time! The cops could not stop the car. Finally the boy stopped himself near his home and ran inside his house.

The reason for his sudden taking away his father's car is also interesting ~ He didn't want to go to the Church.

Weber County Sheriff's Capt. Klint Anderson reported that the the car reached 40 mph before the boy stopped in a driveway and ran inside his home. The deputies followed only to discover the boy's father had not realized the car was gone.

Father confronts his son, who admits his escapade. Luckily the boy or his father did not face any punishment; but the boy is confronted and gets a detailed angry lecture from his father.

Now, on the coming Sundays, keep your car keys hidden from your kids and even toddlers. Who knows what they are up to?

Thieves Steal Liquor, Gets Drunk, Sleeps Off and Caught

What happens when a burglar robs some liquor and celebrate the booty on the spot? He gets drunk and falls asleep. Easy for the cops, right?

This is what happened to Keith Cullen and Paul Wiggins at Swansea, Wales. Both these burglars steal liquor worth about $1,154 from a liquor store. They stacked up the stolen booze outside the store and then went in to have a drink. Naturally got heavy drunk on the free booze, they doze off. It was for the cops as they found them deep in sleep outside the store next morning.

The Sun newspaper reports that Cullen turned up for his hearing at Swansea magistrates' court so drunk he was prohibited from entering the building. Wiggins disappeared from the court.

Don't ask me whether there was any proof. The close circuit TV installed at the store recorded the entire proceedings of their burglary, boozing and sleeping act for all of us and the court to see!

Now, next time, we hope, when both these burglars decide to steal liquor, they would celebrate their booty at a different place and not the place of theft. What do you say?

Three Year Old Falls From Third Floor - Survives

This 3 year old boy was looking out an open window with a screen in place, but the screen gave way and he fell about 21 feet onto a hedge below. He was very lucky to survive with only some minor injuries, isn't it?

The incident happened at a hotel in California. The family was visiting from Kuwait and staying at the Larkspur Landing Hotel on Johnson Drive. The boy was looking out an open window leaning against a window screen. Suddenly, screen gave way and he fell about 21 feet onto a hedge below.

It was reported by the police that the screen may have helped absorbing some impact of the fall. The boy was rushed to Children Hospital Oakland, where his condition is reported to be improving and his injuries are reported to be minor.

Now, don't you think that falling from such a height and surviving is due to the blessing of God upon the boy and his family?

Underwear Thief Caught With More Than 1000 Pairs

Is he insane? He has a fetish for underpants? Or does he steal them for fun? What do you call a man who steals underwears?

It was the 3 pairs he tried to steal that caught the eyes of cops. He was caught from a sports hall in the western town of Gelnhausen. The German man, 46, was caught red-handed (or was it pants-down) by the policemen.

Later, a thorough search on his flat by the cops revealed that he has an enormous collection. The German police uncovered over 1 000 pairs of underpants and more than 100 pairs of swimming trunks from his flat, the report says.

If you think that this collection would be dirty and unused, then you are wrong. All these underwears were neat and clean thoroughly washed and stacked perfectly. The police is wondering where from all his pricey catch came from.

Now, what do you think? What idea do you have to give as a clue to the cops?

Man, 65, Takes On Alligator To Save His Dog - Loses Fingers

Can he be called the Hero? After all he saves a 7 year old dog from a 7 foot alligator. And he was all of 65 years.

This heroic incidence happened in West Palm Beach. David Grounds was walking his 7-year-old dog by the pond behind his home. Suddenly he saw a huge, powerful alligator approaching. He screamed for Mandy, his companion dog. But it was too late.

The alligator clamped down on Mandy's midsection, as this report says, and the squealing dog was helpless as the alligator started thrashing. Grounds, 65, rushed over and grabbed the gator's mouth with his hands while poking it in its eye with his thumb. The gator released its grip and Mandy was saved. But then the gator snapped at Grounds, taking part of his right index and ring fingers.

Now, would you be able to do such a heroic ct when you reach 65? And that too to save your dog from a huge alligator? Kudos to David, who is in the hospital and we all pray for his early recovery.

Family Sues Harassing Genie

Do you think that 'genies' always grant your wish and follow your orders? Like the tale of 'Aladdin and the Magic Lamp'? Then beware! A family in Medina is dragging a genie to court on a case of harassment.

According to Wikipedia, In Islam and pre-Islamic Arabian folklore, a genie (also jinn, djinn, from Arabic جني jinnī) is a supernatural creature which possesses free will. Genies are mentioned in the Qur'an, wherein a whole Sura is named after them (Al-Jinn). They can be either good or evil. In some cases, evil genies are said to lead humans astray. In Islam, Satan, known in Arabic as Iblis, is the iconic genie that refused to bow down to Adam when ordered to by Allah.

This Saudi Arabian family, who come from Mahd Al Dahab, had to change their house where they had been staying for the past 15 years due to the evil spirit. They started hearing strange sounds and later heard voices of the genie saying them to vacate the house. The genie started throwing stones and children got scared.

Now, the family found no option, but to vacate the house as 'ordered' by genie. But they decided to fight the case. A local court is investigating the case.

Will they be able to drag the genie to the court and win their case? Time only will tell. Let us wait and watch.
