I think the following story could only happen in Canada (ok maybe Germany as well). Naturally it involves beer – our favorite beverage!
Usually when a plane makes an unscheduled stop it’s because there’s a fire onboard, it has engine trouble or there’s some kind of medical emergency … but not in Canada! Nope! A beer theft on board an Air Canada Jazz flight on Tuesday caused the plane to divert.
Even the Mounties got involved!
Steve Holmes, a Royal Canadian Mounted Police Constable told AFP that a passenger had stolen beer from a beverage cart and then tried to flush the empty cans down the jet’s toilet in order to dispose of the evidence. (Yeah like him wobbling around the craft drunk wouldn’t be noticed!)
The flight from Vancouver to Fort McMurray, Alberta was diverted to Kelowna, British Columbia, and police arrested the 23-year-old suds thief.
The man now faces charges of causing a disturbance on an aircraft, Holmes said.
Well folks, now you know what will happen if you steal booze on a Canadian flight!

Talk about your dumb criminals!
Shortly after the town of Greensburg, PA’s First Commonwealth Bank was robbed on Tuesday morning, police came across a bank robbery suspect who was counting the loot as he walked away from the heist!
Police say that the suspect, 35 year old, David Morgan, had handed a bank teller a polite demand note with a smiley face on it when he robbed the bank.
The man was arrested several blocks from the bank as he was walking along counting money. He fit the description of the suspect.
I guess the moral of the story for would be bank robbers out there is to not count your take until you get to a safe place!

What was this mother thinking?
A mother was accused on Wednesday of driving a getaway minivan with her two young children inside after burglaries at two New York City homes.
Prosecutors said Erika Santana, 23, drove the van with her four-year-old and five-month-old children inside after Hugo Lantigua, 22, who is the baby’s father, and Pedro Camillo, 19, broke into two houses in the borough of Queens.
Santana, Lantigua and Camillo face charges including burglary, criminal possession of a weapon and endangering the welfare of a child, and face up to 25 years in prison.
“It is unthinkable that a mother and father would put their children in harm’s way while allegedly committing these crimes. It is even more unimaginable that they would allegedly do so with a loaded handgun in their vehicle,” Queens District Attorney Richard Brown said.
