There is a bunch of them one after the other. Here is one:

A Little Gas

"A Dutch veterinarian was fined 600 guilders (about $240)
for causing a fire that destroyed a farm in Lichten Vourde,
the Netherlands. The vet had been trying to convince a farmer
that his cow was passing flatulent gas; to demonstrate, the
vet ignited the gas, but the cow became a "four-legged
flame-thrower" and ran wild, setting fire to bales of hay.
Damage to the farm was assessed at $80,000. The cow was
unharmed. AP "

    Here is another one:

    Don't Defend Yourself - Oklahoma City

    Dennis Newton was on trial for the armed robbery of a convenience store
    in a district court this week when he fired his lawyer. Assistant district
    attorney Larry Jones said Newton, 47, was doing a fair job of defending
    himself until the store manager testified that Newton was the robber.

    Newton jumped up, accused the woman of lying and then said,
    "I should of blown your [expletive] head off!"
    The defendant paused, then quickly
    added, "- if I'd been the one that was there."

    The jury took 20 minutes to convict Newton and recommend a 30-year sentence.

    Having worked for a judge for years, this one brought back memories:

    Drug-possession defendant Christopher Johns, on trial in
    March in Pontiac, Michigan, said he had been searched
    without a warrant. The prosecutor said the officer
    didn't need a warrant because a "bulge" in Christopher's
    jacket could have been a gun. Nonsense, said Christopher,
    who happened to be wearing the same jacket that day in
    court. He handed it over so the judge could see it.
    The judge discovered a packet of cocaine in the pocket
    and laughed so hard he required a five-minute recess to
    compose himself.

    Ok, one time we had a defendant come into court who had missed his trial date two days before, this is two days after Christmas. He said he couldn't get there because he was in Boise, Idaho and snowed in. We were in Woodland, CA. I had just driven in from Boise the day before. The judge called a recess. He and I had a talk in chambers. We had a little laugh in chambers. Court back in session. The judge informed said defendant that madam clerk had returned from Boise the day before and there was nary a flake on the ground. Did he want to try again? He went to jail.

    This one is just weird:

    From Dan's Paper/The Hamptons

    Some local male softball players in the Hamptons who play in a local league are being accused of using the male enhancement drug Viagra to gain an edge during games. Some are suggesting that they give extenz a try. You don't need a prescription for it.

    Here are two more from Dan's Paper:

    Stop Calling Me
    A man in East Hampton just doesn't seem to be getting the message. The man has been calling a woman he wants to develop a relationship with but unfortunately for him, she isn't interested. The woman called police and they contacted the man and advised him to stop calling her. However, the man continued to call her and was subsequently arrested. We are waiting for details to see whom he called when police gave him his one phone call.

    Bicycles
    Several bicycles in Montauk were stolen over the weekend. Police are suspicious that it has something to do with the fact that gasoline in Montauk at many of the stations there costs $5 per gallon. Hmmm, ya think?!?!

    oh and lets not forget it's the land of the rich and spoiled...I mean famous:

    A waiter in Southampton was punched in the face after he had not given enough attention to his customer. The customer became upset after waiting for nearly an hour for service at the restaurant and became so angry that he threw a drink at the waiter and punched him in the face. In the Hamptons, we have very difficult patrons.

    LOL

    As for the Hamptons, the rich guy probably got off without any charges. ;0 (

    You actually have to feel sorry for the cops out there. Sometimes they have a dilema like in this story:

    Former New York City Mayor Rudolph Giuliani got into a scuffle with John McCluskey in Bridgehampton. McCluskey was arrested after threatening to hit Giuliani while crossing the street. McCluskey denied the allegations, saying that he criticized Giuliani to his face and when he did, it was Giuliani who threatened to fight him, so he made a threat back in response. The matter is being investigated.

    That is because Mr. McCluskey is a multimillionaire and a big wig in East Hampton. So who do you arrest that will give you the least amount of grief; the ex-mayor of NYC or a multimillionaire?

    I just love Dans Paper! You even get commentary with the police blotter:

    Bros Before Throws
    Two brothers were throwing rocks, spitting at a car and screaming obscenities at a woman and her husband at their house in East Hampton. The owner of the house filed a police report. In defense of the brothers, they are certified idiots.

    OUCH! That would suck to be the cop in that case.
