THIEF FALLS ASLEEP ON THE JOB
It didn't take Sarasota, Florida deputies long to solve a burglary when they found the suspect sleeping on the homeowner's bed!
A housekeeper called 911 when she found Dion Davis passed out with a bag full of stolen jewelry next to him.
He didn't even wake up when deputies started taking pictures.
"PASTAFARIAN?"
A woman in Oklahoma asked if she could sport religious headwear for her driver's license photo, but when she put a colander on her head, she got a few giggles.
Shawna Hammond claims she's a Pastafarian from Enid and believes that wearing a metallic spaghetti strainer on her head is her guarantee of religious freedom.
According to the Oklahoma DMV, as long as there are no shadows and clear view of her face, she can wear any religious headpiece she wants - even one that holds pasta.
BEAR AT THE BEACH
He must have wanted to catch some waves. Wildlife officers in Jacksonville Beach, Florida tranquilized a bear and carried it away after it was found at a condo complex near the beach.
The 350 pound bear was later let go in a wooded area - where he wandered off.
DOG AND OWNER REUNITED
You can call it the best lick ever for a dog owner.
Phelia, a 1-year-old Siberian Husky owned by an Austin, Texas woman, mysteriously disappeared in mid-July.
The dog was micro-chipped and, more than a month later, a Chicago animal shelter called to say they found the pooch.
The chipmaker Home Again paid for Phelia's flight back to Austin. It's a mystery how Phelia got to Chicago in the first place.
