STALKING – A woman told police her estranged husband keeps trying to contact her through Facebook although she has blocked him. She said he followed her, driving past so she would see him, then tagged along as she drove to Wal-Mart, where she called the cops.

DOWNSIZING – The prices go up and  the portions go down, and one woman at Popeyes Chicken and Biscuits didn’t like it. The lady was angry over the size of her side items when she bought chicken, and was so mad she slammed the restaurant door upon leaving, knocking the door off its hinges. That’s powerful mad.

IT’S A DOG’S LIFE – especially when you go to jail over a four-legged friend. That’s what two Campus Club Apartments women did – they were each charged with battery after they tussled physically over their pet dog.

WHO? WHAT? HOW? – They know  the “where” – it was at Foxridge Apartments. But the man at the hospital was so inebriated he could not tell police how he sustained a lacerated lip, bruised face and shoulder injury.  Did he fall or did someone attack him? He was too drunk to know what happened, reports stated.

CAUGHT RED-HANDED – A Boss Lanier Road, Portal man caught three offenders on his property stealing scrap metal. He detained them until deputies arrived to arrest them. The men admitted taking metal items and selling them at a scrap iron place in Metter.

BREAKFAST, ANYONE? – It was an angry female at Finch Trailer Park on U.S. 301 North who  threw a pot of hot grits on her boyfriend, causing burns. She called police and told them he physically attacked her, but there was no evidence, and he denied doing so. Yep, she went to jail.

HONESTY DOES EXIST – A man found a $30 money order at Advance Auto and turned it in to police. Not many people are that honest anymore.
