Police in Dartmouth, N.S. have re-captured a man who escaped by slipping undetected out the back door of a sheriff's van Wednesday morning.
Nova Scotia Justice Department spokesperson Dan Harrison said 48-year-old Thomas Arnold Jones was apprehended in the early afternoon after police implemented a dragnet around the area where he was believed to be hiding.
Harrison said it's still unclear how Jones managed to slip out of the van, which was carrying sheriffs and other inmates who were also bound for court.

Jones was to be sentenced for break and enter during his scheduled court appearance on Wednesday, and faces additional charges of assault, unlawful confinement and arson, Harrison said.
Jones escaped from the van around 9:30 a.m. local time.
A CTV News viewer was travelling behind the sheriff's van and photographed the man as he fled from the back of the vehicle and made his escape while wearing leg shackles.
The photo submitted to CTV appears to show the man slipping out the back door of the vehicle, ducking down to avoid detection while the van was stopped on a highway.
CTV Atlantic's Kayla Hounsell, reporting from Dartmouth earlier Wednesday, said police were searching through backyards and hopping over fences in their attempts to find the escapee in an area around the courthouse and nearby hospital.
Hounsell told CTV Atlantic she spoke with a woman who had a terrifying encounter with the escapee.
"She was on her way to the Dollarama and before she could get out of her car this prisoner came up to her car and tried to get in," Hounsell said.
"She of course was very frightened, didn't know what was happening at the time but was able to lock the doors of her car. He stopped and said 'oh' and then took off."

Oregon couple allegedly tries to tip for steak dinner with envelope full of meth, predictably gets arrested

SEASIDE, Ore. — A waitress at a U.S. restaurant says she received an unusual tip — an envelope full of methamphetamine.

The Daily Astorian newspaper reports the Oregon waitress contacted police Friday after a couple included the envelope while paying for their drinks.

The responding officer identified the substance and arrested 40-year-old Ryan Bensen and 37-year-old Erica Manley.

“She was like ‘Whoa — what the …?’” said Steve Keszler, a manager at the steakhouse told The Oregonian. “We’re not a little dive bar or hole in the wall. We’re a classy place.”

The couple allegedly tried to pay with a gift card at first, but did not have enough money on the card.

The vehicle took off at a high rate of speed, struck a median and drove recklessly before stopping at a traffic light, police said.
Officers attempted to get the driver out of the vehicle when he allegedly accelerated forward, knocking an officer to the ground. The officer sustained minor injuries.

The suspect, 27-year-old Evan Rowland of Alexandria, was arrested at his home several hours later and was charged with malicious bodily injury to a law-enforcement officer. He was held without bail.

Reckless teen posts “Me Driving Like an Idiot” video and gets himself caught by police

Tip: If you're going to drive like a complete idiot and film it on your dash cam, make sure you accidentally turn yourself in afterward.

That's pretty much what reckless teenager Robert Kelley, 18, did after he decided to joy ride around New Smyra Beach, Florida, crashing into four vehicles and injuring 5 people.

Since he was apparently foolish enough to upload his little dash cam video to YouTube, police have caught him.

Kelley faces charges of reckless driving and driving without a license. Police are even considering laying down a third charge of intentional battery with a vehicle.

He should have titled his video "Me Posting Incriminating Evidence Like an Idiot".....  :

A frisky drunk who tried to get personal with a cash machine and a picnic table cooled off behind bars Friday night.

Police in Murfreesboro, Tenn., say Lonnie Hutton, 49, strutted into the Boro Bar and Grill, cozied up to the ATM, pulled down his pants and underwear and then attempted to have sexual intercourse with the machine.

According to wate.com, responding officers found Hutton, still nude from the waist down, walking around the bar, thrusting his hips in the air.

They took Hutton outside and told him to sit at a wooden picnic table.

The police report said he “exposed himself again and engaged in sexual intercourse with the wooden picnic table.”

Hutton was charged with public intoxication and booked into the Rutherford County jail on $250 bond.

He is scheduled to appear in court July 1.

The thing a lot of people fail to realize about policing is that typically the people you catch in the midst of sex acts tend not to be the people one would want to catch in the midst of sex acts.

World Cup ticket purchase leads to arrest of Mexican drug lord

Brazliian authorities arrested a long-sought suspected Mexican drug lord as he attempted to board a domestic flight from Rio de Janiero to Fortaleza, Brazil, where Mexico faced Brazil on Tuesday.

Jose Diaz-Barajas, 49, bought a ticket to the match under his real name. He was arrested at Tom Jobim airport and will remain in custody in Rio until he is extradited to the U.S. The U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) assisted in the arrest, as Diaz-Barajas is suspected of exporting methamphetamine to the U.S.

A 27-year-old Illinois woman who was accused of stealing several items from a clothing store was busted after she posted pictures of herself in a shoplifted dress on Facebook.

Danielle Sexton reportedly swiped a multicolored leopard print dress with a black waistband from Morties, a store in her native West Frankfort. After the owner's son, Kert Williams, posted a note about the theft and a description of the woman on his Facebook page, people quickly began pointing him toward Sexton's selfie, which she had just set as her new profile pic. Williams passed the information along to the police, who arrested her.

Bladder bursting fish tank thief caught in sting

A British thief's getaway was foiled Saturday when he urinated on a wasps' nest and the anger insects stuck it to him.

Jamie Brown, 29, was on run after breaking into a Leeds, Yorkshire, store and making off with a fish tank, the Halifax Courier reported.

While hiding in some bushes Brown felt the need to relieve himself and made a direct hit on a wasps' nest, unleashing a stinging attack.

The Courier reported that a sweating and crying Brown was seen by police.

He told cops he was running home after being stung several times following a visit with his aunt. Police found a pair of gloves and the fish tank nearby.

Brown spent six hours in hospital before being released and sent to court, where he pleaded guilty to theft and jailed for 24 weeks

Police: Prostitute, client join forces for burglary spree, then battle over loot

http://www.insidenova.com/news/arlington/police-prostitute-client-join-forces-for-burglary-spree-then-battle/article_5cdd8df6-7c9d-11e4-93e1-a3980241b67e.html

On Dec. 1 at 7:45 p.m., a witness in the 1100 block of South Hayes Street told police there had been a physical altercation between a man and woman.

When police located the suspects, it was determined that the woman was a prostitute who met the man at another location and, after what was described as a “brief sexual encounter,” both traveled to the Hayes Street area and stole items from several area businesses.
When the male suspect demanded one of the items from the woman, a verbal argument ensued, which then escalated into a physical confrontation.

The male suspect was arrested on an attempted-robbery charge; the female suspect was arrested due to an outstanding out-of-state warrant.

Darwin Award? Watch as attempted ATM robbery blows up in man's face

It’s a robbery attempt that’ll knock your socks off – if you’re wearing any.

An Australian man wasn’t wearing socks, but he did get his sandals knocked off early Monday in an explosive ATM robbery attempt captured on video by security camera.

In the video, the suspect appears to be using an improvised explosive in an attempt to destroy an ATM machine in the Australian suburb of Darwin. But the robbery goes wrong, and the explosive detonates while the man is standing directly in front of it.

Freed from prison, man robs same NJ store 14 years later

A man faces a return to prison for robbing the same New Jersey shoe store - and the same clerk - that he held up 14 years earlier, authorities said.

Christopher Miller, 41, pleaded guilty to robbing the shoe store in Toms River in March 2014, one day after his release from prison where he had been sent for robbing the same store in 1999, Ocean County, New Jersey prosecutors said.

In the more recent robbery, a clerk who had worked at the store during the first robbery recognized Miller as the same culprit, prosecutors said.

The clerk had been notified of Miller's release on parole, said Al Della Fave, spokesman for the Ocean County Prosecutor's Office.

"She looks up and there he is," Della Fave said.

Police said the bandit demanded money and cell phones from employees, forced them into a back room and fled with $389 cash.

Miller pleaded guilty on Monday to second-degree robbery in Ocean County Superior Court and faces the possibility of 10 to 20 years in prison when he is sentenced on May 15, prosecutors said

This could have been criminal. In the end, it was just a dumb idea.

Frenchman packs Russian wife in suitcase to enter EU
Poland's border guards detained the man but there was no need for his antics because his wife would have had no trouble entering the passport-free Schengen travel zone

A Frenchman tried to smuggle his Russian wife into the EU by hiding her in a massive suitcase, without realising there had been no need for the would-be James Bond scheme.

Poland's border guards detained the man, whom authorities said was in his 60s, on Friday at the railway station in Terespol, an eastern town on the border with Belarus.

The size of the luggage drew the suspicion of the officers, according to Dariusz Sienicki, a border guard spokesman.
"To their surprise, a woman in her 30s emerged. It was the Russian wife of the owner of the suitcase," he told AFP.
"She was alive and well and didn't require medical attention."

The couple, who had been taking the train from Moscow to the French city of Nice, were soon released after questioning and decided to return to Belarus.

Little did they know the woman would have had no trouble entering the passport-free Schengen travel zone without the over-the-top caper.

"Had she been sitting next to her husband, she would have made it through without incident," Sienicki said.
Non-EU citizen spouses are allowed to enter if they can prove their marital ties, so that families can stay together.
Instead the couple had risked "a three-year jail sentence because of their attempt to evade border control," he added.
"This was the first time I've seen someone travel like this. She very well could have been a victim of human trafficking."
