We send meth-fueled attack pigeons after our mail men - well if I had one I might.

I've always heard them called parakeets, but they are budgerigars (aka budgie).

That happens in Texas (downtown Houston) too.

This is another crazy one, and it's from Houston. The mother should be euthanized.

Quote:
A Houston woman who was driving a sport utility vehicle toward her children in an apparent game of "chicken" struck and killed her 3-year-old son, authorities said.

Stagg can be seen on surveillance video reversing a white Lincoln Navigator in an apartment complex parking lot as her three small children run toward the vehicle, prosecutors said. When the kids are just feet from the SUV, it moves forward, trapping the 3-year-old under the right front tire.

Authorities said Stagg continued to drive forward and ran the boy over again with the right rear tire of the SUV, which weighs approximately 5,600 pounds.

He was taken to the hospital by ambulance but later died.

Stagg initially told police she thought she hit a speed bump when she was going in reverse.

She was arrested Thursday and appeared in probable cause court Friday morning. Prosecutors requested she be held on $50,000 bail. It was set by the magistrate at $1,500.

It is unclear whether Stagg has an attorney.

“You should be playing Peek-A-Boo with a 3-year-old instead of forcing him to try and dodge a 5,600 pound deadly weapon,” Sean Teare, chief of the district attorney's vehicular crimes division that is prosecuting the case, said in the statement.

Stagg faces up to 10 years in prison if convicted.

"Up to ten years in prison if convicted" for running over your child, but way harsher penalties for drug offences in Texas - weird!

Sorry, yeah, it was the WTF part that really hit me. I've got a 3 year old grandson, so this hits close to home. Horrible. If ever there was a reason for forced sterilization (and capital punishment), this is it.

Yeah, I think the article said "negligent vehicular manslaughter" or something like that.

CRESWELL — An employee of a Creswell hemp farm was robbed Saturday by another employee, who used a stick as a weapon.

According to Lane County Sheriff’s Sgt. Carrie Carver, the victim employee called the sheriff’s office at 12:42 p.m. Saturday from the 84000 block of Cloverdale Road to report the robbery.

The suspect, 27, had allegedly threatened another employee with a stick and took an undisclosed amount of money from the employee, Carver said.

The suspect, who lives on the hemp farm property, was arrested Monday afternoon by the sheriff’s office. He faces felony charges of first-degree robbery, first-degree theft and unlawful use of a weapon, as well as a misdemeanor charge of menacing. First-degree robbery is a Measure 11 offense that carries a mandatory minimum sentence of 7½ years.
