FROM MY GUN TO YOUR HEART WITH LOVE: A middle-aged woman said she was attending a high school football game with her 16-year-old son when an altercation between her and another parent began. The parent began making threats and said, "I have a gun with seven bullets with Anthony's name and your name on them." (Note: Awwww ... that's sweet. Engraved bullets, just what every girl wants.)
DANG, NOT EVEN THE CHURCH IS SACRED ANYMORE: A 58-year-old woman was getting her praise on at a church on North College Street when she got so caught up with the Holy Spirit that she left her purse unattended on a pew. When she came back to retrieve her purse, it was gone. She said she found her purse sitting on top of her car, but noticed that a single check was stolen from her checkbook.
WITH A FRIEND LIKE THIS, WHO NEEDS ENEMIES?: A 24-year-old woman said she was a passenger in her friend's car when they began arguing. She said her friend punched her in the face and pushed her out of the car while it was still in motion. (Note: This girl really has great driving skills. If she can physically assault someone and push their ass out the car while keeping control of the vehicle, she might have a profitable future as a stunt woman.)
AND THE AWARD FOR MOST RANDOM OFFENSE GOES TO ...: A middle-aged homemaker said someone came into her yard and cut off all the limps of her maple tree. As if that wasn't random enough, the suspect then dug holes throughout her front yard. (Note: Ummmmm ... I think someone was off their medications and/or has serious beef with Mother Nature.)
THREAT OF THE WEEK: A 40-year-old man said he received two disturbing calls between 2 a.m. and 3:40 a.m. He said the person threatened him by saying, "I want to put my hands around your neck until you stop breathing and then [have my way with you] while you're cold." (Note: Crreeeeeepy.)
