Kids lead cops on wild chase
TWO 13-year-old boys - one who is already on bail - allegedly stole a family's car and took police on a wild chase through Darwin's northern suburbs.

Man fined for "Obama" Christmas display
A Pasco County man who put a message to Barack Obama at the center of his home's Christmas display is being fined by the county,
Joe Athas says the sign painted on his roof, which reads "Obama and Joe -- the men" isn't about politics. It's about pride.
The New Port Richey resident originally painted the message the day before the election, but eventually made it part of his holiday display.
He didn't find out there was a problem until a Pasco Code Enforcement officer showed up at his door saying it was illegal to display political signs more than 15 days after an election.
He's now been given seven days to have the message removed or face an $80 fine.
No matter what happens, Athas says he plans to keep the sign in place through the holidays, even if he's forced to pay the fine.

Old man attacks cop -- with a tree branch
We bet the cop was really, really scared.
First, a 65-year-old dude comes at him.
Then he attacks the Tallahassee cop with a tree branch
The old coot grabbed the 3-foot-long branch and repeatedly socked the cop.
The cop, who had minor injuries, fought back.
But not with a gun, thank heavens. He defended himself with a baton.
