That's nuts! Chinese villager uses a HAND GRENADE to crack walnuts for 25 years without realising

  • The man from Ankang had been using the tool without realising what it was
  • He only realised when he was handed a leaflet about explosives
  • According to villagers, the man had used the grenade for the past 25 years

The man who went on a violent, sexually charged rampage in Las Vegas over the weekend was drugged ... at least according to his family.

Brian Danilczyk downed a drink laced with hallucinogenics, causing him to slug a one-legged man at the Flamingo Hotel Sunday, his wife reportedly told the press.

Danilczyk then got naked and barged inside Harrah's Hotel and Casino, where he flaunted his genitals and danced on top of a poker table. Vegas cops wrestled Brian to the floor, arresting him for indecent exposure and disorderly conduct.

@SHOOTER12, sorry about your confrontation in Vegas. Hope you’re ok.

Dallas couple who called 911 to report kidnapping suspect not eligible for reward, Crime Stoppers says

A Dallas couple who called 911 to report a kidnapping suspect was told they are not eligible for a Crime Stoppers reward. 

The man was wanted for allegedly kidnapping and raping a 7-year-old girl, and the couple’s 911 call led to his arrest.

Briana and Kenyatta Jordan were coming home from lunch on July 7 when they noticed a face they recognized from the news and a Crime Stoppers billboard: 41-year-old Leonard Neal.

With six children of their own, the Jordans had taken a good look at the man accused of abducting a 9-year-old boy and a 7-year-old girl.

Police say Neal released the boy, but the girl was missing for 12 hours. Police say he sexually assaulted her. 

"That could have been our oldest two kids," Briana said.

The Jordans did not just call the police. Once Neal got on the bus, they knew they needed to follow it.

After getting disconnected from 911, a Dallas police officer called Kenyatta. 
 

"Once we made the right on Polk, he said, 'That's y'all's minivan?’ I said yes," he recalled. "He said, ‘We are pulling up behind you. So y'all can get out of the way now.’"

Before police arrested Neal, he cut his throat. Police later released this mug shot.

Later the Jordans learned about the Crime Stoppers reward that had been offered for Neal, a most wanted fugitive. But when they asked about it, they were told they were not eligible because they called 911 instead of the Crime Stoppers number. 

The couple feels like it was a bait and switch.


Dallas police said the 41-year-old man accused of abducting a 9-year-old boy and his 7-year-old sister last month has been taken into custody.

"We dialed 911 instead of Crime Stoppers. We are not able to get the reward? Squint," they said.

As police work to build trust with the community, the Jordans say this feels like a breach of that trust. 

"It feels like we were misled," they said.

On DPD's website, it urged anyone with information to call Crime Stoppers or 911. Crime Stoppers is operated by the North Texas Crime Commission, a cooperative partnership. 


Dallas Police Chief Eddie Garcia told FOX 4 in a statement, "While DPD does not have input on the criteria that must be met for a Crime Stoppers reward, when a unique set of circumstances arises, we certainly can open conversations that will help improve services, prevent crime or help to solve investigations in our city."

The Jordans are hopeful that will happen in their case. 

"They should be held to their word," they said.

FOX 4 spoke with a Crime Stoppers board member. He said the rewards are only paid to people who call the tip line, based on Texas law. 

The Jordans believe if they had tried to find the crime stoppers tip line instead of 911, Neal might still be on the run.

FOX 4 will be asking Texas lawmakers if it may be time for the statute to change.

That’s some ridiculous BS. Makes me ragey.

https://apnews.com/article/human-waste-truck-leak-accidents-90424ccd0283286ecec565e54a4d3d2b?utm_campaign=SocialFlow&utm_source=Twitter&utm_medium=AP_Oddities

Human waste leaking from a tractor trailer on a Connecticut highway caused crashes including one involving two state police cruisers as vehicles spun out of control, authorities said.

No major injuries were reported in Monday night’s mayhem on Interstate 95 in Bridgeport. Troopers arrested the truck driver on several charges, alleging he knew there was a leak but kept driving.

The wrecks began shortly after 11 p.m. when the leaking waste caused extremely slick conditions in the northbound lanes, state police said.
A motorcycle rider lost control and fell onto the road, ending up in a hospital with minor injuries. Vehicles crashed into other vehicles and concrete barriers.

Another tractor trailer skidded into a parked state police cruiser, which then struck a second parked cruiser in the median. Both cruisers were unoccupied as troopers were helping others involved in wrecks.

Super sad one here <no sarcasm>.  Just awful.

Dog fell into an uncovered cistern, one hunter went in to save it, overcome by decomposition fumes from other animals that had previously gone in, then two more hunters tried to get the first hunter out.  They too were overcome.  Terrible.

Used this as a safety topic at work yesterday.  Any kind of tank can have a hazardous atmosphere, so don't enter without testing.  Hydrogen sulfide kills quickly.

And if you see someone down in an enclosed space, get help; don't go in after them.  Better one death than two or, as in this case, three.

Houston ranked No. 1 U.S. city for surviving zombie apocalypse, apparently

 

Quote

"Texas is a standout state for zombie survival in our ranking this year," Lawn Love stated in its analysis. "Three Lone Star cities—Houston (No. 1), San Antonio (No. 3), and Austin (No. 6)—finish in the top 10, alongside other big cities like New York (No. 2) and Los Angeles (No. 5)."

Burning Man...not so burning this year.

Thousands still stuck in the muck at Burning Man festival; 1 death reported

Quote

BLACK ROCK CITY, Nevada − Authorities on Sunday were investigating a death at the sprawling, mud-caked Burning Man festival while more than 70,000 attendees were told to shelter in place and conserve food, fuel and water amid heavy rains that made driving out of the swampy desert venue almost impossible.

The Pershing County Sheriff's Office said the death occurred "during this rain event" but offered no details, including the person's identity.

"As this death is still under investigation, there is no further information available at this time," the sheriff's office said.

The vast majority of attendees appeared to be well-sheltered, with adequate food and water, and none of the more than 20 people interviewed by USA TODAY expressed concern about their well-being.

Some camps were handing out coffee, blueberry pancakes and mimosas, as is tradition, while others quietly dismantled their tents and other structures, normal activity for the Sunday before Labor Day at Burning Man.

Australia - a home intruder breaks into a house. Thankfully he's overpowered by a resident. The resident then rapes the intruder, resulting in death. The occupant was convicted of rape.

I mean, the guy broke into your backdoor, but you break into his? Seems unfair.
