Angry wife was really fired up

A spurned Chinese wife from the Eastern province of Shandong China was so upset with her husband that she set more than 400 cell phones on fire!

The couple co-owned a successful retail business and when her husband walked out on their marriage she retaliated by destroying their stock of mobile phones valued at more than $42,000 US. After she set fire to the phones she walked out of the house.

Luckily neighbors saw smoke coming from the house and called the firefighters who extinguished the blaze quickly.

The 37 year old woman has been arrested for arson.

Stacked Cats?

stacked cats

Looks like these cats are stacked on top of each other in order of their size or weight with the fat cat being on the bottom!

I wonder if they were fighting over the ball or bell that seems to have been claimed by the big cat?

Coffin Purchases are apparently a big tip off

You’d think most police officers would have an idea when eight people are murdered, but apparently the Columbian Police were unaware of some suspicious murders until the victims relatives decided to purchase coffins for the burial of their murdered relatives.

The province in Columbia, near Ecuador, in which the coffins were purchased is a key Cocaine production area. Leftist rebels and drug gangs frequently fight over smuggling routes in the area.

Now that the police have become suspicious about the deaths of eight people they are investigating the case. Police said the murders appeared to be part of a robbery where one trafficking group stole a large amount of coca base from another group and used it to make cocaine.

Man way over limit fights with gas pump

Recently police in Madison, Wis., said Milo G. Chamberlain’s blood-alcohol content was .425, which experts said usually is attainable only by those either dead or in a coma. But he was picked up, quite conscious, allegedly causing a disturbance at a gas station, where he reportedly got into a fight with a gas pump before being restrained by passers-by.

Oops! They were the wrong size

Department store assistants in the Hainan province of China were surprised to discover that a pair of trousers that had been stolen on Sunday reappeared when they took stock Monday evening, though another pair of trousers in another size were missing. Authorities suspect that a thief stole a pair of trousers from the store but later found that they didn’t fit him, and then proceeded to return to the department store and switch them with a second pair. Though no arrests have been made, police suspect a man in his 30s who had “tried on many trousers in their store in the past two days, but failed to buy any.” Currently an investigation is underway.

That thief has guts - steal the pants once, return them and steal yet another pair? I guess he really wanted that style.
