EXPLAIN that bite in the ER!
A rather desperate US snake
lover has been busted stuffing his
pants with exotic reptiles at his
local pet store in Arizona.
The 22-year old man was caught
on the store’s CCTV camera, after
seemingly browsing the reptile
enclosures, all the while dropping
five snakes into his pants.
“He hangs out here for an hour
with the animals in his pants, he
doesn’t just take off with them
he hangs around,” said one
bewildered pet store worker.
After his snake smuggling
escapade, the man walked with
his slithering bounty to another
nearby pet store and sold the
snakes for around US$1,000 plus
a reptile tank.
He was apprehended shortly after.
NO need for high tech labs,
there’s a 12-year old on the case!
A twelve-year old girl has
shown up a police squad and
their lab, after solving a crime
from clues they had missed.
The junior detective, learned
the tricks of the trade at a kids
detective camp over her school
holidays, and put them into
practice recently in the wake of
an investigation into a robbery at
her great grandmother’s house.
According to reports, the girl
inspected her great-grandma’s
house and found signs of forced
entry in the garage, which the
police had not noted.
“The windows were broken and
there were finger prints by the
glass,” she said.
The girl then went to a local
pawn shop where she found her
great gran’s property, and
obtained photographs of the
man who had sold them.
Soon after the girl and her
mother tracked down the
address of the robber and went
to his house to confront him.
“At first he denied it, but then
he confessed,” the sleuth said.
Despite this evidence, no
arrests have yet been made.
