LOL VIDEO:
Huntsville Alabama police are searching for a man who broke into a home and got into bed with a woman. Police say it happened about 3:10 on Wednesday morning on the 500 block of Webster Street. Kelly Dodson woke up to find a stranger in her bed. Her brother heard her scream.
Antoine Dodson rushed to help and struggled with the man who got away through a window. "Seeing my sister when I walked in, he had his hands around her neck. First thing I did was pull him off her," said Antoine.
I know this is a serious story, but the victim's brother is unintentionally amusing.
Kelly and Antoine said the suspect left behind his shirt and fingerprints. A crime scene investigator photographed and dusted for prints on the lid of the garbage can and the window pane and ledge.
Dodson says he's never seen the suspect before but sends this warning to whoever is responsible. "You don't have to confess you did it. We are looking for you. We gonna find you. I'm letting you know now so you can run and tell that homeboy," said Antoine. No one was injured in the incident.
Student handcuffed, photographed and fingerprinted for swiping cafeteria food
The Police Department has withdrawn a theft ticket issued to a Shorewood Wisconsin High School student who was handcuffed, photographed and fingerprinted after being accused of stealing a chicken nugget meal from the school cafeteria, Police Chief David Banaszynski said Monday.
Police and the school principal agreed the matter should be dropped, he said.
The ticket, given in March to Adam Hernandez, was to be the subject of a Municipal Court trial Tuesday.
"It shouldn't have gone this far. There are other means and methods to handle this kind of situation," Banaszynski said.
The arrest of the 15-year-old freshman was reported Sunday by Journal Sentinel columnist Eugene Kane.
Kane reported that Hernandez denied stealing the $2.60 meal, but rather received it from a friend who participated in a free lunch program at the school.
A rally in support of Hernandez had been planned at Village Hall just prior to Tuesday's scheduled trial.
Banaszynski confirmed that after Hernandez was arrested and handcuffed at the school he was taken to the police station to be photographed and fingerprinted before being released.
He said the same procedure would have been used had police been told, for example, that someone had eaten food from the deli of a grocery store without paying for it.
The fine and costs assessed for a municipal theft ticket total about $170, Banaszynski said.
Banaszynski noted that the police officer who works at the high school full time, as well as an assistant principal, were at the scene when officers arrived to make the arrest.
Asked if he thought a theft had occurred, Banaszynski said he didn't want to speculate.
"There's more than one side of the story," he said.
Hernandez's lawyer, James Hall, said he was pleased there would be no trial.
"To have handcuffed him and taken him to the police station in the first place, about a matter involving some chicken nuggets, was a bit over the top, in my view," he said.
"Hopefully, this can be a teaching opportunity in terms of showing how matters like this can be handled in a manner that wouldn't result in a minor having a record."
Ex-Cop Found Not Guilty of Killing K-9 Partner
A former Miami-Dade cop was found not guilty of misdemeanor animal cruelty by a jury Friday, ending a four-year saga that will likely have animal activists in a frenzy.
Despite eyewitness testimony that Allen Cockfield repeatedly kicked his K-9 partner Duke until the dog had a seizure and eventually died, the jury reached the conclusion that the 25-year veteran cop's actions were warranted.
Cockfield had faced felony charges for killing a police dog, but the judge tossed the more serious offense out Thursday.
According to eyewitnesses, Cockfield had become angry at Duke because he was barking during an obedience training session.
One officer present during the June 2006 incident testified Cockfield lifted the dog up by its choke chain and then violently kicked the dog five or six times.
The dog then fell limp, wheezing on the ground, before going into a seizure and dying.
Duke and Cockfield had been partners for six months before the incident.
Defense attorneys claimed Cockfield, who has handled police dogs for two decades, was acting in self-defense.

Acupuncture patient locked inside clinic with needles in her back
An acupuncture patient was found locked in a Bellingham Washington Clinic Tuesday night after she told police she had been left on the treatment table with needles still in her back. Bellingham police said the woman called 911 and was found by officers locked inside Discovering Health at 1513 E. Street.
Police say the clinic's employees had apparently forgot about her and gone home for the night. The 47 year old woman told officers she pulled the needles out of her own back and tried to leave but the door was locked from the outside.
She tripped the motion sensor security system inside the business. The woman was pulled from the business unharmed. "We are not investigating this. This was just a call for service for us", says Police spokesman Mark Young.
Police are not releasing the woman's name. Discovering Health would not comment on the incident. The Department of Health says it will investigate if a complaint is made.
JOKE: In a small Texas town, the police arrested the local madam
In a small Texas town, the police arrested the local madam and seized her little black book, which listed all her girls. Each officer on the small police force was assigned a group of names and ordered to check them out. After a week, the chief held a meeting. When he called on Detective Summers, Summers replied, "Chief, I'm sorry but I'm gonna have to disqualify myself. One of the ladies I questioned is an eighty-four- year-old so charming that I've fallen in love with her." "Tarnation, boy!" exclaimed the chief. "I'm surprised at you, Summers. You've been a policeman almost all your life -- and here you go, falling for the oldest trick in the book!"
