Return those library books
A Texas man was jailed for failing to return a library book he checked out in 2010. Copperas Cove law allows police to arrest anyone who has not returned an overdue book within 90 days. “Nobody wants to get arrested over a library book,” said Municipal Court Judge Bill Price. “[But] people that go to our library and can’t have these materials, they’re put out too.”
Halloween costume causes panic
A student in a ninja Halloween costume caused a panicked lockdown at Central Connecticut State University. Senior David Kyem triggered reports of an “armed” intruder when he returned to campus in his costume, with a mask over his face and a sword strapped to his backpack. The lockdown ended after three hours, and Kyem was arrested and charged with breach of peace.
