News of the Weird, “No Way!”

Updated weekly.

Caught in The Act??

     In Monrovia, Donna Hargett knew her neighbor put up decorations for Christmas, but she didn’t know that there was a bear cub trying to wrestle the inflatable reindeer. Not knowing what would happen next, “I looked up, and there it was, jumping on the reindeer,” Hargett said. Both a mama bear and baby frequently visit the neighborhood, causing all sorts of havoc and fun throughout. This is not the first time this bear  visited the neighborhood. They’ve been spotted in a pool, taking a quick dip before the wintertime arrives. Donna says, “We see these two (around) all the time.” Within the neighborhood, the neighbors only knew one duo who broke into the house and left pawprints on the bed, the two bears. Who knew this duo would dominate the community?

The Furry but Funny Thief

     Dental work and damaged tires are something no one looks forward to. Unless it’s Billy the dog. With a case of gingivitis, Billy was suspected of the mysterious damages throughout the Italian city of Vastogirardi. The undercover cops on patrol had gone months trying to figure out who this villain was, terrorizing the citizens’ belongings, not expecting a cute, furry dog. After mounting the surveillance cameras in November, the case was closed when Billy was caught in the act of chewing on a car tire. 

Finally caught the Gingerbread Man

     Ringing the doorbell is something we all find normal, so what about answering? Not so much. In Arlington, Virginia, a family was getting ready to savor their dinner when the doorbell didn’t ring, but there were sounds at the front door that were quite unusual. The creepy visit was a first, “There’s this guy; he didn’t ring the doorbell. He’s just standing there, and he’s in a gingerbread man costume.” Calling the non-emergency line, the man states. Neighbor Lindsey Churchill identified a gingerbread man but wasn’t sure if it was a joke or not or who the person in the costume was. Funny or creepy is the real question.

Which one was the funniest to you? See you all with more funny stories next week, Mustangs!
