Source: Alan Schein Photography / Getty Home Depot Bomb Threat Was Just A Misunderstanding You really gotta watch what you say when you’re out in public, and this story proves just that…in the most ridiculous way possible. Police were called to a Home Depot in Wichita, Kansas after it was believed that a man was making a bomb threat while shopping in the home improvement store. The 911 audio was recently released by Sedgwick County Communications, in which the caller tells the operator that someone may have made a bomb threat, according to reports from KWCH . “We just had a customer here made what may have been a bomb threat,” the caller told the police. “He said, uh, somebody told me there’s a bomb in here and you need to leave the building. He said it three times.” Staff was alerted to the possible “bomb threat” after a person overheard the man talking in the store’s restroom. However, authorities learned later that the threat was actually just a euphemism used by a man who reeeeally had to use the bathroom. “You all need to get out of here because I’m fixin’ to blow it up,” is what the man allegedly said that tipped off fellow consumers. A fellow witness to the bomb about to be dropped in the bathroom believed it to be a joke and laughed at the man, while police were able to track the man down and clear up the serious misunderstanding. Apparently, this isn’t the first time an incident like has occurred before. Back in November, one man in New Orleans was arrested after he allegedly threatened to blow up Willie’s Chicken Shack, but claimed that he actually said he was going “blow the bathroom up” in the same way the Home Depot customer meant. Arthur Posey, the man in question, faced two charges of communicating false information of planned arson.

Today we have yet another incident of caucasians harassing a Black person who was looking to enjoy some cool water on a hot summer day. According to TheIndyChannel Shayne Holland was kickin’ at the pool of the apartment complex where he pays rent when THIS happened. I actually live here, so I’m assuming they told the police that it’s not too many black people that do so if you see one make sure you get their address.

Another Celebrity Learns That Bringing Guns To Airports Isn’t A Good Idea At some point, celebrities will realize sneaking guns onto planes is an awful idea. TMZ just reported that Coolio was the latest celeb to find himself in handcuffs after he tried to sneak a loaded handgun through airport security. Apparently, someone tried to sneak the gun through in a book bag. There’s some discrepancy on who the gun belongs to, whether it’s owned by the Compton rapper or a member of his security team. Witnesses told the police the gun belonged to Coolio, but the police are still doing an investigation into the incident. (via TMZ )
Special Education Teacher Caught Having Sex With Special Needs Student Another freaky pedo teacher has been caught smashing a student in her care — this time one with a limited understanding of what exactly it is he was getting into. A Las Vegas special education teacher recently victimized one of the developmentally challenged young men in her care at a local high school. Via MailOnline : A special education teacher has been caught having sex with a 16-year-old student inside a classroom, according to police documents. Married 25-year-old Jillian Lafave was arrested after a hall monitor allegedly caught the two during school hours at Valley High School in Las Vegas, Nevada, News 3 reported. According to KTNV, the arrest report also stated that Lafave had exchanged more than 13,000 text messages with the student, who had a learning disability. Some of the messages were allegedly sexual in nature. The police documents stated the student would call his teacher ‘mom’ while she would refer to him as her son. Lafave, however, told the teenager through texts that he should not call her mom when they were talking about sex, the report states. Lafave, who was arrested earlier this month, told the police that she had kissed the student and touched his penis, but denied having sex with him. He had tried touching her genitals, but she pushed him away, according to the arrest report. The teenager had posted numerous photographs of himself with Lafave on social media, and told police he loved her when he found out she had been questioned. Lafave was charged with performing a sex act with a student and is scheduled to appear in court at the end of March, but she’s currently out on bond and on PAID leave from the school. SMH! You would think her punishment would be harsher considering how vulnerable the child in question was. MailOnline / Creative Commons
Baltimore Cop Arrested For Biting Man’s Testicles WTF is up with these cops in Baltimore ?! Via WBALTV An Anne Arundel County police officer faces an assault charge after he bit another man’s testicles in a fight over a woman on Cinco de Mayo, according to charging documents released by police Wednesday. Baltimore City police officers were called in the area of the 700 block of South Linwood and 2900 block of O’Donnell Street for an assault call around 11:47 p.m. Tuesday. According to charging documents, a man told police he was assaulted by two men, one of whom bit his testicles in the alley behind Looney’s Pub in the 2900 block of O’Donnell Street. A woman approached the responding officers to tell them she witnessed the fight, according to charging documents. Police said she gave description of the attacker who was wearing a blue and white polo shirt and cargo shorts. She told the police she waited at the front door of the Claddaugh Pub at 2918 O’Donnell St. for police arrive as she had seen the attacker walk in there, according charging documents. According to the charging documents, police said Michael Flaig, 31, was found on the second floor of the bar with blood stains on his shirt and appeared inebriated. Ok, so, what the hell happened?? Police learned that Flaig and another man jumped the victim outside the bar after the victim confronted Flaig about his touching his friend and roommate — a woman. The victim told police that during the altercation Flaig bit his testicle and ran off. Police said they were unable to find the second man involved in the attack. Flaig is being charged with second-degree assault. How the hell do you bite a man’s sack through his pants??? Maybe this cop has had some practice with balls in his mouth before.

George Zimmerman had yet another brush with the law this week after he allegedly threatened to kill a man following a road rage incident. Seriously. WSVN reports that the altercation took place in Lake Mary, Florida. The man, whose name has not been reported by local media, also told the police that Trayvon Martin’s killer was waiting for him at his work afterward. Zimmerman reportedly admitted to police that he had an altercation with the man, but won’t face any legal action, as the man has declined to press charges. The 30-year-old, acquitted in the Martin case last July, has avoided protracted legal battles two other times in the past year for exactly that reason. In December, Zimmerman’s girlfriend Samantha Scheibe declined to press charges after initially claiming he pointed a shotgun at her face during an argument. Last September, George’s ex-wife Shellie Zimmerman declined to proceed with a case against him after she claimed he threatened her and her father with a gun. A previous report on this week’s alleged road rage suggested that Zimmerman was working as a security guard at the time of the confrontation. The business at which he claimed to be working at the time denied that George was an employee there; that reference has been removed from the story. Florida Man: Strange Sunshine State Stories 1.
