Homeless Man With Hatchet Saves Woman From Giant Racist

Wed, 02/06/2013 - 12:08
California - A homeless hitchhiker in West Fresno, Calif., may have saved two people’s lives Friday after they were attacked by a giant, epithet-spewing racist who claimed to be the reincarnation of Jesus Christ.

The bizarre series of events unfolded around 2 p.m. on Friday after 54-year-old Jett Simmons McBride drove his car into the back of a black electrical worker and pinned him to his utility truck.

“I’m Jesus Christ and I can do anything I f***ing want to do,” he supposedly told Kai, a hitchhiker he’d picked up, right before slamming into the man.

Apparently intent to finish him off, McBride stepped out of his truck and tried yank him out from between the two vehicles. All along, he spewed more weird racist rants: He was Jesus reborn, and he was here to remove “ni**ers” from the face of the Earth.

Tanya Baker, an eyewitness, ran over to try stop him. McBride responded by smothering her in a bear hug.  Full Article

Accused police impersonator says arrest stemmed from misunderstanding

Wed, 02/06/2013 - 11:57
South Carolina – Jason Stoddard, a 32-year-old videographer and director, said the whole episode stemmed from a playful prank in which he pulled over a good friend while driving a prop car designed to look like a police cruiser.

The joke backfired when his friend got scared, bolted and called police in a panic, he said.

With her help, Stoddard said, he’s now trying to clear his name and get the criminal charge dismissed.

“It was the worst misunderstanding of my entire life,” he said Monday.

A Charleston police report, however, indicates that the woman positively identified Stoddard and the car as being involved in the traffic stop that frightened her.

The woman also told officers she did not know Stoddard, police spokesman Charles Francis said. Full Article

Wed, 02/06/2013 - 11:56
Connecticut – Barbara Aiello, 71, was charged with two counts of risk of injury to a minor after booting the boys, ages 10 and 11, from her Middletown home early Sunday.

Police said it was 4:30 in the morning and the temperature outside was 23 degrees. Aiello claimed she didn’t realize how late it was when she kicked them out.

The Connecticut grandma – fed up with her grandson’s boisterous sleepover party – was thrown in jail after she booted two young boys from her home.

Police say Barbara Aiello, of Middletown, endangered the boys’ lives when she kicked them out around 4:30 a.m. Sunday and into the cold. The 71-year-old was charged with two counts of risk of injury to a minor and is set to appear in court Monday, according to NBC Connecticut.

Aiello told the station that she ousted the boys, ages 10 and 11, in a fit of rage when they became too rowdy.

“I said everybody out,” Aiello recalled. “I opened the door, not thinking, not realizing the time. I was angry and said, ‘Go home.’” Full Article

Cops bust 10-year-old for bringing toy gun to school – Charged with brandishing a weapon

Wed, 02/06/2013 - 11:55
Alexandria – The boy, a fifth-grader at Douglas MacArthur Elementary School whose name is not being released, was charged as a juvenile with brandishing a weapon, police said.

He was also suspended from school, and Alexandria City Public Schools Superintendent Morton Sherman said further action is being considered, including expulsion.

On Monday, the boy showed the plastic gun to at least one other student during a bus ride home from the school. The 10-year-old did not point it at anyone or threaten to shoot it, but he neglected to mention that the weapon was fake, said Alexandria police spokeswoman Ashley Hildebrandt.

When the boy arrived, authorities found the toy in his backpack. He was taken into custody, transported to a juvenile detention center for booking and then released to his parents, Hildebrandt said.

“A toy gun is no danger to anyone,” said Liane Rozzell, executive director of Families & Allies of Virginia’s Youth. “A 10-year-old is not a fully formed adult by any means. And that kind of situation should be dealt with outside the courts and the justice system.” Full Article
