"Theft By Escort"A Seattle man who hired an escort to "have fun" told police that she stole $170 from him after she went to her car to fetch some condoms.
The man, who is in his 50s and lives on Whitman Avenue North near Lake Union, had called the escort after spotting an advertisement in the Feb. 21 edition of The Stranger, a police report filed Thursday said.
The woman arrived at his apartment late last month for the rendezvous. He agreed to pay her $150 to "have fun" and $20 to cover her gas.
"At some point into the fun," the woman asked the man whether he had condoms, according to the report.
Upon hearing that he did not,
she said she would get some from her car.
As the man waited for her to return, he looked out his window and realized the escort was driving away in a silver car.
.Clinic: Have Vasectomy, Watch NCAA HoopsSPRINGFIELD, Ore. (AP) - For guys who park in front of the TV during college basketball's March Madness, the Oregon Urology Institute has a suggestion: Why not use that time to recover from a vasectomy?
"When March Madness approaches you need an excuse ... to stay at home in front of the big screen," the clinic's radio ad says. "Get your vasectomy at Oregon Urology Institute the day before the tournament starts. It's snip city."
Institute Administrator Terry FitzPatrick said men need two to four days to recover from the procedure - but not all take the time.
He's reserved a dozen appointment slots for March 19, the day before the first tip-offs of the NCAA Tournament, and another dozen for March 26, before the tournament's second week.
He reported filling 15 slots by Thursday afternoon and expects to fill all 24.
The sports radio station broadcasting the clinic's ads promises to send each patient a recovery kit of sports magazines, free pizza delivery and a bag of frozen peas.
Why Peas?
"The frozen peas are malleable enough that you can get them right in there and get the swelling down," FitzPatrick said.
