Great Moments in Police Blotters

by Marissa on 15 February 2006

A couple of priceless police blotter news bits from the tri-state area:

First, from Ohio, courtesy of You Can’t Get Arrested For Being Awesome:

What to do if you’re streetwise and you want everyone to know about it? Simple, broadcast it on your forehead.

A synopsis of a legit “breaking news” story on tonight’s 9 News at 11:

2 suspects fled after robbing a local barbershop and shooting the shop’s owner. The description of one of the suspects includes the tattoo “Bonafide Hustler” ACROSS HIS FOREHEAD (emphasis not added, the reporter on the news rolled her eyes and laughed as she said this).

Needless to say, the “police were familiar with this subject.”

The other, courtesy of my cousin Sam’s blog, Good Times Bad Times:

This is from the Bluffton News Banner police notebook- Date Unknown

“Sunday. 3 p.m., Joe Balsis 400 block of eastmoor Dr. Reported a cat stuck in his vechicles engine. Animal Control contacted”

Its all fun and games until a cat gets stuck in your engine. lol… I wonder how does a cat manage to get stuck in an engine? Does Fido just wander under the car and lodge itself in the under carriage? and more interestingly… How would the phone call to Animal control go?

“Uhhh yeah Hi, this is John Doe and I have CAT stuck in the engine of my vehicle…“

The only thing I would’ve enjoyed more would’ve been a story about a guy with “Bonafide Hustla” tattooed on his forehead getting caught storing a cat in someone else’s car engine. Of course, I hope the cat was uninjured. I couldn’t care less about the Hustla.
