Nobody likes a stereotype, but a West Virginian man’s actions a couple of weeks ago kind of proved that some residents of the Southern States really are hicks.

Michael Ginevan, 39 years of age, attempted to flee from a police officer who tried to pull him over. Ginevan was driving a strange vehicle indeed. It was a lawnmower with a case of beer attached to the front of it.

Sherrif’s deputy JH Jenkins managed to catch up with the unruly lawnmower driver while on foot. It must have been a strange police chase indeed!

Police arrested a granny in Bloomington, Minn., for allegedly giving her 9-year-old granddaughter gin, causing the girl to vomit, fall down and hit her head.

The unnamed grandmother gave the alcohol in hopes the girl would pass out, so she could go out for the night rather than stay home baby-sitting, cops said.

The child’s mother was at work.

Isn’t that terrible? Hire a babysitter granny!
