Woman Stuffs Snake Down PantsWorkers at Preuss Pets in Lansing say a woman stole a snake, and how she did it-- well, it's one for the books. "We've got some great pictures," says longtime employee Jayzun Boget. "It shows her taking the snake out; shoving it down her pants-- it's been the source of endless jokes here."
They say the snake the woman stole was pretty young, only about six months old. It was too young to be sold.
The $175 snake is a boa constrictor that'll grow to be 12 feet long..Man Accused of Stealing Pizza Pans
ARDMORE, Okla. (AP) - Pan pizzas are flying out the door at a local Pizza Hut restaurant. At least the pans are. Ardmore police say workers at the pizzeria arrived for work Thursday and discovered every pizza pan missing from the restaurant.
While workers borrowed pans to prepare pizzas for the day, police checked out a local scrap metal shop and determined one business paid about $17 for 30 aluminum pans.
The sale led police to arrest Jody Wayne Guinn, 34, who was being held Friday at the Carter County Detention Center on complaints of embezzlement and disposing of stolen property.
Police Capt. Tony Trudell said the pans were recovered undamaged and returned to the restaurant.
.Mixed-sex prison a step closerHaverigg Prison has moved another step closer to housing male and female inmates this week. Robin Pitt, an ex-prison officer and Copeland councilor for Newtown and Millom, said he thinks plans to turn the Cumbrian jail into a community prison are achievable. The county council and other district authorities in Cumbria will also be asked to support the idea in principle. If the scheme was accepted by the Government, Haverigg could become the first community prison in the country -
housing Cumbria's adult male and female prisoners and young offenders, category C and D, with drug treatment and a 24-hour health facility.
