A Wis. man, Peter W. Mischler, 48, came home on a Saturday after he’d been out hunting. He was upset with his 22 year old daughter, who was talking on the phone with her mother at the time, as she had let the goats out and they’d made a mess.
While the daughter was still on the phone the man told his daughter to ask her mother to bring home some beer but the wife refused.
Angrily he threatened to shoot the goats if she didn’t bring home beer.
She didn’t bring any beer home and shortly after she arrived back at the house the mother and daughter heard four gunshots outside. They went outside and found one of their two goats with it’s entrails hanging out.
Mischler was charged in Circuit Court with mistreatment of animals, possession of a firearm while intoxicated and disorderly conduct with a dangerous weapon.
The poor injured goat was shot by a deputy to put it out of it’s misery.
Mischler posted $1000 cash bond and was released. No word on whether he returned home to his wife and daughter.
Have you ever been driving on a highway and noticed items like mattresses, box springs or other large objects on the road or at the side of the road? If you’re like me you’re probably glad that you weren’t driving behind a vehicle when they lost those items, right?
Well, an elderly motorcyclist wasn’t so lucky. Last month a motorcycle rider was critically injured when a boxed bathtub fell off a pickup truck.
Wow, hit by a bathtub. That man will have a story to tell! When he was hit on a Louisiana interstate he was thrown from his bike and landed on the grass median. When helped arrived he was taken to a local hospital. I’m uncertain as to what his injuries were but I’d imagine that he’d have a few broken bones at the very least.
Naturally the pickup driver was charged with driving with an unsecured load and booked for negligent injury.
A drunk man who was running naked into highway traffic and subsequently caused three accidents has been arrested.
Two people stopped their cars and tried to help the 26 year old, Ardonas Gilbert of Chester P.A., who had been running naked along the southbound lanes of Interstate 95 this past Monday night. However Ardonas refused their help and allegedly cursed at them and tried to punch them says a Delaware State Police officer.
After hitting the people trying to help him, Gilbert then ran out into traffic and caused three separate accidents as motorists tried to avoid hitting the man. Luckily no one was seriously injured.
Gilbert was charged with two counts of assault and a single count of being drunk on a highway. What? No indecent exposure?
Thousands of bees escaped when a truck that was carrying their hives ran off the highway and overturned near a Montana community.
One State trooper, Dell Aman, stated that he’d been stung twice, but he didn’t think anyone else was injured.
“The public was in no way in danger, as long as they didn’t stop to get out of their vehicles,” he said. “If they did get out, they figured out pretty quickly that that wasn’t the place to be — no pun intended.”
The truck had been traveling from North Dakota to California when it veered into a ditch along interstate 94 just at the exit for Huntley. The driver of the truck wasn’t injured in the accident, but he was cited for alleged careless driving.
The truck had been carrying 465 beehives which amounted to nearly 13.7 million bees!
Luckily most of the bees behaved and stayed in their hives but a few thousand got loose.
Once the weather cooled in the evening the bees returned to their hives.
Good thing this didn’t happen in the middle of a city! I’d imagine more people might have been stung if it had.
